The musical theatre of Stephen Sondheim probes deeply into the most disturbing issues of contemporary life. By challenging his audience with intricate music, biting wit, and profound themes, he flouts the traditional wisdom of the musical theatre. Tracing Sondheims career from his initial success as lyricist for West Side Story and Gypsy to his most recent work--Into the Woods and Assassins--Joanne Gordon emphasizes not only the disturbing content of Sondheims work, but his innovative use of form. In shows such as A Little Night Music, Sweeney Todd, and Sunday in the Park with George, Sondheims music and lyrics are inextricably woven into the fabric of the entire work.About the Author:Joanne Gordon is Head of the Directing Program at California State University. Art Isnt Easy, written with the full cooperation of Sondheim himself, is her first book.
