Though his music can be musically and lyrically complex, Sondheim is a
terrific example of a composer/lyricist for actors to work on, because as he
famously said, 'Content dictates form'.

Each participant will be assigned a Sondheim song to prepare and memorize
for class. This song will be specifically tailored to the actor themselves,
and be technically appropriate for an audition scenario.
