Director Maria Friedman on Bringing 'Merrily We Roll Along' Back to Broadway

"Merrily We Roll Along" has long been considered the biggest flop of Stephen Sondheim's career, even as it features some of his most ambitious musical work. Now, after a successful run at the New York Theatre Workshop, a new revival of the musical starring Daniel Radcliffe, Lindsay Mendez, and Jonathan Groff comes to Broadway. We speak with director Maria Friedman, who once starred in a Haymarket production of this musical, on how she made this notoriously difficult show work. "Merrily We Roll Along" is running at Hudson Theatre through March 24, 2024.
