Being Alive at the Hayes Theatre


An exquisitely moving and exhilarating concert of songs by the greatest musical theatre mind of all.

Being Alive celebrates Hayes audiences’ love affair with Sondheim, following acclaimed, award-winning, and sold-out seasons of Assassins (2017), Merrily We Roll Along (2021), and A Little Night Music (2023).

After directing a host of Sondheim musicals across her career, Sonya Suares (The Lucky Country) works with four extraordinary performers to honour the great man’s legacy. Musical Director Luke Byrne leads a refined and intimate three-piece band for this unique concert event.

How startling and original all of his work is. He didn't comply with styles. He created them.
