The musical Company, created by George Furth and Stephen Sondheim, opened on Broadway in 1970. It was nominated for 14 Tony Awards and won six.

Now, it will be brought to life once more on the stage of Cornell College as the Cornell College Theatre Department presents the musical.

It will open at 7:30 p.m. Friday in Kimmel Theatre and run through Dec. 18. Tickets are $10 for adults, $8 for non-Cornell students. Admission is free for faculty, staff, and students of Cornell.

Company is thought by many to have ushered in the modern age of musical theater. It takes place in New York City and focuses on a bachelor named Robert on his 35th birthday. Throughout the musical, he examines his life as a bachelor and contemplates the relationships of his friends, which he finds befuddling at times.
