The Frogs

 

The Frogs, Southwark Playhouse Borough, 2025.

Cast: Dan Buckley, Kevin McHale, Joaquin Pedro Valdes, Carl Patrick, Bart Lambert, Martha Pothen, Alison Driver, Milo McCarthy, Evonnee Bentley-Holder, Jo Foster.

Written and adapted by Aristophanes, Burt Shevelove, Nathan Lane.
Music & lyrics: Stephen Sondheim

My attempt to see all of Sondheim's stuff - not impossible, there's not as much of it as you'd think - took me to this early and obscure (to me, at least) work. Silly and fun but completely forgettable. Kevin McHale was in Glee and was an unlikely actor to find in a small theatre in South London (he was good though).
