Sunday in the Park with George

One of the most heralded musicals of our time, Sunday in the Park with George is a moving portrait of an artist struggling to reconcile the perfect, imaginary world of his painting with the imperfect, messy world of real life. Act I revolves around George Seurat (1859-1891) and the creation of his signature painting “Sunday Afternoon On The Island Of La Grande Jatte.” Seurat’s inability to commit to anyone or anything but his work is echoed in Act II as George’s great-grandson confronts his own artistic demons and failure to connect.
