Passion

 

"Easily among Sondheim''s best—subtle, rhapsodic and full of emotional depth." —David Patrick Stearns, USA Today

 

"Hypnotic, rigorous, very risky...a major work." —Vincent Canby, New York Times

 

"Held me in its grip...had me sobbing uncontrollably...Sondheim''s deepest, most powerful work." —Robert Brustein, New Republic

 

Passion is the third original collaboration between Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine. Their first, Sunday in the Park with George, earned them a Pulitzer Prize. Their second, Into the Woods, won Tony, Grammy, Drama Desk, and Drama Critics Circle awards.
