A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum

Broadway's greatest farce is light, fast-paced, witty, irreverent and one of the funniest musicals ever written. A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum takes comedy back to its roots, combining situations from time-tested, 2000-year-old comedies of Roman playwright, Plautus, with the infectious energy of classic vaudeville. A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a nonstop laughfest in which Pseudolus, a crafty slave, struggles to win the hand of a beautiful, but slow-witted, courtesan named Philia for his young master, Hero, in exchange for freedom. The plot twists and turns with cases of mistaken identity, slamming doors and a showgirl or two. Square One Players production of A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum has its opening night performance on Saturday August 2nd, 2025. The performance begins at 7:30pm. Additional performances are on Sunday August 3rd at 2pm, Saturday August 9th at 7:30pm, and Sunday August 10th at 2pm. Ticket prices are $20 for General Admission and $17 for Students/Seniors.
