Roundabout presents the Menier Chocolate Factory's revival of Stephen Sondheim's musical, winner of the 1985 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Sunday chronicles the life of French impressionist painter Georges Seurat during the creation of his now celebrated masterpiece, "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte," 1884. Act Two is set in the 1990s, when Seurat's great-grandson encounters different artistic struggles.
