America's premier funny man and the Tony Award-winning composer of A Chorus Line, Neil Simon collaborated on this hit musical, based upon celebrated composer Marvin Hamlisch and his relationship with an aspiring young female lyricist, Carole Bayer Sager. The wisecracking composer finds the offbeat lyricist a good match, but not initially a match made in heaven. The two undergo a series of trials and overcome a number of hurdles before finding true love by the final curtain.
They’re Playing Our Song is essentially a two-character show. Vernon and Sonia are the sole characters on stage; each character has a three person Greek chorus acting as their inner voices.
