A Little Night Music

Posted Aug 03, 2022

Set in Sweden, A Little Night Music explores the tangled web of affairs centered around actress, Desirée Armfeldt, and the men who love her: a lawyer by the name of Fredrik Egerman and the Count Carl-Magnus Malcom. When the traveling actress performs in Fredrik’s town, the estranged lovers’ passion rekindles. This strikes a flurry of jealousy and suspicion between Desirée, Fredrik, Anne (Fredrik’s wife), the Count (Desirée’s current lover), and Charlotte (the Count’s wife)! This web becomes even more tangled when both men – and their jealous wives – agree to join Desirée and her family for a weekend in the country. With everyone in one place, infinite possibilities of new romances and second chances bring endless surprises.

“A Little Night Music” is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by Music Theatre International.

Suggested by a film by ingmar Bergman. Originally Produced and Directed on Broadway by Harold Prince
