A Little Night Music (2009 Broadway Revival)

Trevor Nunn’s spectacular, multi-Tony Award-winning 2009 Broadway revival of Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler’s 'A Little Night Music' brought a thrilling, intimate grandeur to the Walter Kerr Theatre, running for an astonishing 425 performances. Stripping away traditional operetic sentimentality to focus with raw emotional clarity and Chekhovian realism on the complex psychological dimensions of the text, this high-profile staging turns a midsummer weekend into a fierce crucible of unfulfilled romantic longings and marital infidelities. The blockbuster revival premiere was anchored by international screen royalty Catherine Zeta-Jones in her Tony-winning turn as Desirée alongside Angela Lansbury as Madame Armfeldt.
