Stephen Sondheim's COMPANY with the NEW YORK PHILHARMONIC

Stephen Sondheim's COMPANY with the NEW YORK PHILHARMONIC

Following five couples and their friend Robert (Neil Patrick Harris), the perpetual bachelor, Company explores the true meaning of being in a relationship through a series of vignettes. Neil Patrick Harris (How I Met Your Mother, Rent) leads a star-studded cast which includes Patti LuPone, Stephen Colbert, Jon Cryer, Christina Hendricks, Craig Bierko and Martha Plimpton.

Company's plot revolves around Bobby (a single man unable to commit fully to a steady relationship, let alone marriage), the five married couples who are his best friends, and his three girlfriends. It's a concept musical composed of short vignettes, presented in no particular chronological order, linked by a celebration for Bobby's 35th birthday.

The original Company on Broadway in 1970 was nominated for 14 Tonys , winning Best Musical, Book for Musical, Original Score, Lyrics, Set Design and Direction of a Musical.
