Merrily We Roll Along: Director Maria Friedman in Conversation with Jonathan Groff

May 19, 2024


Join Tony-nominated director Maria Friedman on her hit new Broadway revival of Steven Sondheim’s Merrily We Roll Along with star Jonathan Groff, whose three Tony Award nominations include Best Actor in a Musical for his role in the show.

Sondheim’s classic musical — following the lives of three friends over the course of two decades as one of them pursues fame in Hollywood — is an exuberant and moving ode to friendship. Friedman’s current Broadway revival starring Groff, Daniel Radcliffe, Lindsay Mendez — the first since the short original run in 1981 — is being hailed by critics as one of the best musicals of the season and was nominated for seven Tony Awards, including Best Revival of a Musical. Hear Friedman and Groff discuss the long road to the revival — the show’s history, Friedman’s long friendship with Sondheim himself, Groff’s infectious chemistry with his castmates, making a Merrily that speaks to a new generation, stories from backstage, and more.
