A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum
Under the auspices of the City of Leavenworth Parks & Recreation Department, the River City Community Players presents: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum.
Book by
BURT SHEVELOVE and LARRY GELBART
Music and Lyrics by
STEPHEN SONDHEIM
Originally Produced on Broadway by Harold S. Prince
As stated on Music Theatre Internationals's website, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is "a nonstop laughfest in which Pseudolus, a crafty slave, struggles to win the hand of a beautiful, but slow-witted, courtesan named Philia for his young master, Hero, in exchange for freedom. The plot twists and turns with cases of mistaken identity, slamming doors and a showgirl or two."
