What: Stephen Sondheim's bawdy, hilarious musical comedy, set in ancient Rome, follows a day in the life of Pseudolus – a liar, a blackmailer, and slave who’ll stop at nothing to win his freedom.

Described as 'a brazen marriage of American burlesque with the play of Plautus, the high priest of low comedy', you may remember the great film version of this show, staring Phil Silvers (a.k.a. Bilco). To quote the Guardian, this is 'a show that has strong claims to being the funniest musical ever written.'
