Description
A humorous, poignant and sophisticated musical "review," Putting It Together is a thematic celebration of the stage and screen work of multiple Tony Award-winner Stephen Sondheim, the foremost theatrical composer/lyricist of our time. Featuring an award-winning ensemble cast headed by the incomparable Carol Burnett, Putting It Together weaves a lyrical story around the emotions and relationships of five guests attending a Manhattan cocktail party, studded with material from a number of Sondheim's original musicals and films including A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Anyone Can Whistle, Company, Follies, A Little Night Music, The Frogs, Sweeney Todd, Merrily We Roll Along, Sunday in the Park with George, Dick Tracy, Into the Woods and Assassins.

 Excellent show, excellent DVD! May 15, 2008
"Putting It Together" is a gem for any fan of musical theater (especially Sondheim fans). The songs are amazing, and all are beautifully delivered; this is a thoroughly enjoyable DVD. Plus, it has Captain Jack Harkness of 'Torchwood' - what more could you ask for? ;-)
Hilarious and Beautiful April 9, 2008
This is a musical delight I can't stop watching and singing along to! The cast is outstanding. Bronson Pinchot and Carol Burnett will have you rolling with laughter (and so will John Barrowman if you watch the outtake!). Witty, well choreographed, and with an intricately-designed set, Putting It Together is one surprise after another. John Barrowman delights with flashy moves and soulful singing, as does Ruthie Henshall, who has shenanigans of her own up her sleeve. Last but not least, George Hearn is spot-on as the aging husband who looks upon his life with some regret over the past, zeal for the present, and hope for the future.
It's a party, and we're all invited!
putting it together January 14, 2008
John Barrowman and Carol Burnett are in great form! the entertaining is great. John Barrowman is great multi-talented entertainer and needs to be reconised more here in the US.
 Got it together December 13, 2007
Very entertaining. Bronson Pinchot was very funny. I'm partial to John Barrowman, so of course I found him to be wonderful. What a voice! I love it when he belts out those notes as clear as a bell. Even with the rest of the cast on stage, he still manages to take command with his sheer presence.
One small, suggestive scene, otherwise good for all family ages.
A great cast and great laughs October 20, 2007
I found this DVD to be wonderful from start to finish. To be honest, I purchased it because I am a great fan of John Barrowman, but found I enjoyed all the members of this cast. Each performer has their own separate strengths which make this very watchable. I only wish there were additional special features, but the one blooper that is included is a riot! Enjoy!
