Vinyl plays with occasional light-crackles (play-graded). Cover looks great; a few creases near edges; light-scuffing and surface impressions (front/back); sticker near top-left and tiny surface abrasions on front; slight discoloration with darker discoloration spots on back. Inner-sleeve is original (Capitol ads). Spine is easy-to-read (text is slightly crooked) with mild-wear. Minor shelf-wear along top/bottom-edge; some wear to corners. Split near right of top-edge. Opening is crisp with signs of light use and divots. (Hole-punch in top-right.)
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart. Inspired by the farces of the ancient Roman playwright Plautus (254–184 BC), specifically Curculio, Pseudolus, Miles Gloriosus, and Mostellaria, the musical tells the bawdy story of a slave named Pseudolus and his attempts to win his freedom by helping his young master woo the girl next door. The plot displays many classic elements of farce, including puns, the slamming of doors, cases of mistaken identity (frequently involving characters disguising themselves as one another), and satirical comments on social class. The title derives from a line often used by vaudeville comedians to begin a story: "A funny thing happened on the way to the theater". The musical's original 1962 Broadway run won several Tony Awards, including Best Musical and Best Author (Musical). A Funny Thing has enjoyed several Broadway and West End revivals and was made into a successful film starring the original lead of the stage musical, Zero Mostel.
