In a bankrupt town in a recession-hit country, the citizens are rebelling against the corrupt Mayoress Cora Hooper. She comes up with a devious plan to reverse her fortunes and keep the town under control. But she reckons without the feisty young Fay Apple and the mysterious stranger Hapgood, who has his own plans for the town and the people who live there...

The team behind the sell-out success of Sondheim's Saturday Night (Jermyn Street Theatre, transferred to West End) reunites to mark Stephen Sondheim's 80th birthday with a reinvention of this funny, daring and imaginative musical. With toe-tapping choreography, a full band, and some of Sondheim's most beautiful music including 'There Won't Be Trumpets', 'Everybody Says Don't', 'With So Little To Be Sure Of' and the famous title song.
