From one of musical theatre's most renowned composers, Stephen Sondheim, “Company” is largely regarded as a trailblazer of the dark-comedy, modern-musical genre and the winner of seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Best Score, Best Lyrics and Best Book.

“Company” tells the story of confirmed bachelor Robert, who on the night of his 35th birthday, contemplates his unmarried state. Over the course of a series of dinners, drinks and even a wedding, his married friends – "those good and crazy people” – explain the pros and cons of taking on a spouse. The habitually single Robert is forced to question his adamant retention of bachelorhood during an array of interactions.

The production, which includes 18 musical numbers, features a 14 member cast, including nine current Limestone College Theatre majors.

Bloomer (Paul) from Gaffney; Christina Loscalzo (Joanne) from Lansdale, PA; Ben Dawkins (Larry) from Atlanta; Jade Alford (April) from Gaffney; Grace Wylie (Marta) from Gaffney; and Jeanna Burch (Kathy) from Gaffney.
