Roundabout Theatre Company and Fiasco Theater will present a new off-Broadway production of Stephen Sondheim and George Furth's Merrily We Roll Along at the Laura Pels Theatre. Performances begin Saturday, January 12, with opening night set for February 19.

Directed by Fiasco co-artistic director Noah Brody, the production will feature Fiasco company members Jessie Austrian, Paul L. Coffey, Ben Steinfeld, and Emily Young. Lorin Latarro will choreograph, with Alexander Gemignani serving as musical director and orchestrator.

With a score by Sondheim and book by Furth, Merrily We Roll Along is based on a play by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart, and features classic songs like "Old Friends," "Not a Day Goes By," and "Our Time." Fiasco, Roundabout's Company in Residence, was last seen at the Laura Pels Theater with Into the Woods.
