A wonderful feature piece about Landmark’s upcoming main stage production of Side by Side by Sondheim has been published in the Long Beach Post. Below are a few excerpts, and please read the full article online.
The Long Beach Landmark Theatre is presenting a celebratory revue of the composer’s work in a show called “Side by Side by Sondheim” beginning Friday, May 8, at the First Congregational Church of Long Beach — a venue well suited to Sondheim’s intricate harmonics, which are sometimes interestingly dissonant.

More than two dozen performers will sing and perform about 30 of Sondheim’s songs, directed and choreographed by Megan O’Toole, with music directed by Curtis Heard. Both O’Toole and Heard helped shape the Landmark’s vocally powerful “Jagged Little Pill” last November.
