Tragedy tomorrow, comedy tonight! Broadway's greatest farce is light, fast-paced, witty, irreverent, and one of the funniest musicals ever written – the perfect escape from life's troubles. A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the 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. …Forum tells the bawdy story of a slave named Pseudolus and his attempts to buy, win, or steal his freedom by helping his young master (Hero) woo the lovely Philia, one of the courtesans in the brothel next door. Hero promises Pseudolus his freedom if he can help him to win Philia's love. Pseudolus is forced to hatch increasingly complicated and ludicrous plans to gain his freedom! (The lead role of Pseudolus is one of the theatre's greatest roles – a tour de force for a clown par excellence.)
