A stunning exploration of tradition and transformation based on historical events.
In 1853, after 200 years of stability, Japan faces an American expedition determined to open the 鈥渇loating kingdom鈥� to trade. The isolationist island鈥檚 reckoning with the unwelcome western influence is brilliantly illuminated through a kaleidoscope of stories about sailors, samurai, 鈥渟omeone in a tree鈥� and two friends who choose radically different paths.
This innovative epic of East meets West is one of Sondheim鈥檚 most ambitious and rarely produced musicals.
