Have you noticed...
...that Stephen Sondheim's name appears nowhere on the print or radio ads for the new Company on Broadway?
What does that say? Other than the guy's gotta get some new representation.

What's *very* weird about it, is that usually it is a requirement in author's agreements that their name appear in letters no smaller than the smallest letter in the title, and all sorts of other things like that. Which means he must've agreed to not having his name on the advertisements, for whatever reasons.
It makes no sense. He's widely considered the greatest musical theater writer of all time.
It makes no sense to me either. Moreover, having seen this iteration of the show (with the identical cast, staging, etc.)when it was playing in Cincinnati earlier this year, the radio ads fail to give the slightest sense of the excitement and greatness of: (a) Company in general; and (b) this production thereof.
