A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum Stage and Script presented the Tony- award winning musical “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum” for Parent s Day in February. The musical, bv Burt Shevelove and Lar- ry Gelbart with music by Stephen Sond- heim, is the story of the cunning slave Pseudolos (Greg Flowers) who is deter- mined to gain his freedom by winning Phi- lia (Sherry Davis) for his young master Hero (Hunter Preston). Philia is a member of the House of Lycus (Bob Daniels) and has been sold to the braggart soldier, Miles Gloriosus (David Feith). This situation is further confused by Hero’s parents (Scott Robertson and Kathy Wofford) and the arrival of Errois (Ross Albert). Hysterium (Doug Wadkins) becomes a part of the plan to win Philia when he is persuaded to dress up like Philia to fool the braggart soldier and his guards (Mike Sulli- van, James Penny, and Darrell Stone). For those who prefer dance, the House of Lycus offers a wide selection of courte- sans (Barbie Radford, Sharon Burt, Lori Griffin, Sonia Howington, Ronda Fuller and Rhonda Fallin).
