The only collaboration of musical theater titans Richard Rodgers and Stephen Sondheim, Do I Hear a Waltz? tells the romantic tale of Leona Samish (Melissa Errico), a middle-class American woman who uses her meager savings for a long-dreamed-of trip to Venice, where she finds love, life, and her truest self. Featuring the ravishing music of a revered master and the sharp-witted lyrics of a genius coming into his own, this underrated 1965 musical has not been seen in New York in decades.
