By Jon Guare. When a young African-American man shows up at the New York apartment of well-do-do-couple Ouisa and Flan Kitterdige, he immediately charms the couple with his stories and claim of being Sidney Poitier’s son. Telling the couple he has been mugged and is out of money, Paul gains the trust of Ouisa and Flan and finds a place to spend the night. But when the light of day comes and Paul’s stories begin to unravel, his saviors start to see they may be part of an elaborate con game. As the truth reveals itself in this funny and frank play, questions arise about what it truly means to have a charmed life.

Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim; Book by James Lapine. Inspired by Georges Seurat’s famous painting, A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, this is one of the most critically acclaimed musicals of our time.
Brimming with beauty and light, Sunday is a deeply moving love story that connects
the past to the future through passionate and intensely personal struggles that are not unlike ones we all face at different times in our lives.
