Send in the Clowns

All this week, Donald Macleod is reflecting back on an interview he did with Stephen Sondheim in 2010 and updating the story of how Sondheim revolutionised the world of Musical Theatre.

Sondheim spent most of his 91 years living in New York, but it came to an end in November 2021 at his home in Roxbury, Connecticut.
