Sag Harbor's Bay Street Theatre has announced a trio of comedies, including the Stephen Sondheim musical A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, as part of its summer 2013 season.

Ken Ludwig's Tony Award-nominated play Lend Me A Tenor, an operatic backstage farce, will be staged May 28-June 23. Following will be Charles Ludlam's The Mystery of Irma Vep, which spoofs Victorian melodrama and Hitchcock's film of "Rebecca" and will run July 2-28.

Bay Street's musical offering will be Sondheim's award-winning A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, featuring a book by Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart. It will run Aug. 6-Sept. 1.

Upcoming events also include "Smash" star Megan Hilty in concert May 25 and comics Paul Reiser on July 15 and Paula Poundstone on Aug. 19.

Bay Street Theatre is in Sag Harbor, NY. Tickets can be purchased by calling (631) 725-9500 or by visiting BayStreet.
