Candide
Candide
Music by Leonard Bernstein
Book Adapted from Voltaire by Hugh Wheeler
Lyrics by Richard Wilbur, Stephen Sondheim and John Latouche
RLT's production was performed in the Cantey V. Sutton Theatre, June 2 - 18, 2006
Featuring a legendary score by Leonard Bernstein, Candide is perhaps the most oft revived of the classic cult musicals. Part sophisticated operetta, part wacky screwball comedy with shades of Monty Python, this funny, irreverent satire is the perfect musical expression of Voltaire's tongue-in-cheek send-up of optimistic philosophies. Adult content and situations.
