Something familiar, something peculiar, something for everyone -- a comedy tonight. So begins this crazy, zany farce of a musical. Fast-paced, witty, irreverent and one of the funniest musicals ever written -- the perfect escape from life's troubles. Forum takes comedy back to its roots, combining situations from time-tested, 2000 year old comedies of Roman playwright Plautus with the infectious energy of classic vaudeville. The result is a non-stop laugh-fest in which a crafty slave struggles to win the hand of a beautiful but slow-witted courtesan for his young master in exchange for freedom. With its unforgettable characters, a hysterical, perfectly constructed book Forum is one of the most popular musicals of the last 40 years.
