5.0 out of 5 stars This is one of the most beautiful shows ever written!, January 6, 2000
This review is from: Passion (Paperback)
While this book is simply amazing... you should either get thecd to listen to while reading this script or watch the movie tohear/see the fabulous performances and Sondheim's glorious music. This book is still worth buying even if you aren't able to hear the score. This play works in mysterious ways and bring out many passionate feelings in anyone with a heart. It conveys and brings forth emotions from anger to pity with Fosca, love and hate, hapiness and depression... This is a truly beautiful book!

4.0 out of 5 stars Needs to be listened to as well as read, September 23, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Passion (Paperback)
As with all of Sondheim's shows, with the possible exceptions of Follies and Sweeney Todd, the book is very hard to read without some sort of knowledge of the score, because that's what dominates the show. Other than a few scattered spoken passages, PASSION is completely sung-through. My recommendation would be to listen to the original cast recording as you read, so you can better understand the action.
