Company 2006 Broadway Revival

[mariasaintfrancis]

This is still my favorite version of Company. The fact that they sang, acted AND played instruments is incredible.

I come back every other year to watch this to understand the dark underbelly of relationships. Each time i learn something else.

Imagine just how talented you need to be to be a great actor AND a great musician, acting while holding onto a heavy instrument the whole time and when not speaking any lines, probably playing the score on the instruments. Insane. They’ve really done some cool and interesting stuff with this one show

im 19 years old and ive never been in a relationship before but damnit this musical really touched my soul ;;

I can’t believe I found the professionally filmed slime tutorial I’ve been looking for

[oliveuh]

it’s so disorientating to watch this deeply emotional show and then see walter white in OP’s profile pic

The level of musicianship in this cast is insane. They get my utmost respect. I've always been partial to instrumentalists but they also sing and act.

I just love Esparza’s dry and hurried delivery of his lines. What a talent. This whole cast kills it. Being Alive came on my Spotify mix and I had to come back to the cast recording. Coming back to this show is like coming back to an old friend. So many iconic songs in one show. There’s a reason it broke records at the Tony’s… this revival is also one of the best Broadway revivals and THE best Sondheim revival in my opinion. (Though the Gyllenhall/Ashford revival of SITPWG is up there too)

Oh don't mind me, just watching the last 10 minutes of this to feel something inside

[clearspiritnow]

I've watched this three times: most recently beginning last night and finishing a few minutes ago. Truly a magnificent performance all around.

Other than the original cast, this is by far my favorite casting....and the Amy character in this? SHE

[uiscepreston]

This production should have truly won a special Tony for the cast also being the full orchestra as well. They fulfill the musical's title in that they are truly a theatrical company, pulling double if not triple duty.

The musical <<<Company>>> started off as 11 one-act plays by George Furth, who asked Sondheim to review them. Noticing a common theme, Sondheim later condensed the plays into what would become the first _concept_ musical <<<Company>>>, centered around marriage and the couples within it. Sondheim has a talent of noticing what is absent (as he would do with George in Sunday in the Park with George), and added Bobby as the third wheel which examines and connects all of these disparate vignettes.

When <<<Company>>> opened, it was to a largely middle class audience who were seeking an escape from their middle class problems. Instead, they found their problems thrown right back at them. Critics loved it. After 50 years, this musical is still as relevant as _Carmen_ or _Othello_, as these great works all touch on the essential parts of life, and no doubt will remain relevant far into the future.

I'm still shocked Raul didn't win a Tony for this. Such an amazingly powerful and heartfelt performance.

[Orin_ged]

its INSANE that this musical doesnt have a fanbase.

[WillScarlet]

The opening number from the Original Cast felt like the opening to a '70s sitcom or TV drama. In this version the opening makes me feel the tension inside Bobby right from the start.

[raquel.reigns]

Does one only truly appreciate this musical when they turn 35? Just turned last week and I can’t stop crying

[TheManzanamordida]

this will always be my favorite revival, no matter how many there are out there, the talent is unmatchable !

[halilheyman]

Hands down that's the best thing Heisenberg has ever done.

[mr.floofles]

Probably my favorite musical of all time. and this is definitely my favorite version. The talent is insane, really motivates me to become a better singer and actor. I just hope I can one day do a performance of this show that does justice to this one.
