For most shows, the rehearsal process is relatively cohesive. People work together and, while they don't always get along, they are always together (and that may be the problem!). But, for the upcoming production of Stephen Sondheim's Company being directed by Lonny Price for the New York Philharmonic, being together has been a big problem given the schedules of the starry cast, which includes Neil Patrick Harris, Patti LuPone, Jon Cryer, Stephen Colbert, Katie Finneran, Martha Plimpton, and Craig Bierko. Check out the New York Times article below to learn how this production was creatively pieced together without the cast having been in the same room together.
