by Stephen Sondheim and George Furth
Stephen Sondheim and George Furth's iconic musical comedy about life, love and marriage.
Often considered the first 'concept musical', Company comprises several short vignettes about Robert - single but surrounded by married friends - which unfold in no particular chronological order, but are all tied together by a surprise 35th birthday party.
Company opened on Broadway in April 1970, at the Alvin Theatre, in a production directed by Hal Prince. It was nominated for a record-setting fourteen Tony Awards and won six, including Best Musical and Best Book of a Musical.
The first West End production opened in January 1972, at Her Majesty's Theatre.
