Here is what people are saying about the Stephen Sondheim's Passion (Original Broadway Cast)

"Sondheim Does it Again !"	2009-02-24
- Reviewed By neustatl2
PASSION, Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. His musicals were never Broadway Hits, the only popular tune he ever wrote was "Send in the Clowns" from Little Night Music but in spite of this he achieved to be the genius composer of Broadway Musical Theatre. Every one of his works is based on different theme, each of his themes is totally original, his lyrics are inteligent and very integral to the show they belong to. PASSION is no exception. It deals with a story of a soldier, at first passionately in love with a married woman, later finding a deep affection for a disfigured, unattractive daughter of his superior officer, who eventually dies and leaves him a long love letter. The music is suitably dramatic and the score, the actress, the book and the whole Musical is the winner of TONY AWARDS. For all who love Stephen Sondheim this is a treat. Joe Neustatl

"Lapine Shines, Sondheim Falls Short"	2008-08-15
- Reviewed By User: A2JFN6BM0NJYL
I love Sondheim. He is a god to me. Every work of his I've ever seen is one I've loved - Into the Woods, Sweeney Todd, Company, Sunday in the Park With George. I ordinarily credit him with all the greatness of each musical, despite the profound efforts of his collaborators - Lapine, Furth, Wheeler, etc. - because I always feel that his score and his lyrics so perfectly capture the entire essence of the characters and the play itself that the writers deserve very little credit. However, that is not the case in Passion. Don't get me wrong - the music is gorgeous (I hear a little Sweeney in there), and the lyrics are great. They just aren't his best. I didn't feel the characters quite as strongly through the music as I did through the scenes, which just isn't usual for a Sondheim show. Hence - Lapine shines, while Sondheim falls short of delivering the way we're used to, which I wouldn't credit any less than near perfection - no doubt, a lot to live up to. More than forgivable. That being said, it's a good show. I can find fault in many places. There is an expectation of the audience to identify with Fosca by the end, which is not plausible considering the entirely creepy way Donna Murphy portrays her. Perhaps it is not so much her performance as it is the costumes and make-up. Granted - she is not supposed to be beautiful. But that does not mean she is supposed to be hideous or mortifyingly stalker-ish. It is hard to identify with someone who blatantly disregarded the will of the one she loved, following him anywhere he went. That being said, Donna Murphy's acting was incredibly emotional and moving. Jere Shea and Marin Mazzie, less so, but still good. Tom Aldredge shines as well. The entire show itself is simply top-heavy with emotion...not surprising, considering the title, but a little humor or applause to break the tension would have been entirely fitting. It is just incredibly mentally taxing to sit through 2 hours of - literal - passion. All that said, good show, and good performance. Just too much, for lack of a better term.

"Sondheim's Masterpiece!"	2007-02-19
- Reviewed By User: A2XCS6T8RDEKCW
This is undoubtably Sondheim's masterpiece. An almost 2 hour rhapsody beautifully sung, acted, staged and filmed. This is a must for every Sondheim fan!!!

"I love this work..."	2007-01-02
- Reviewed By thecitygal
I love all Sondheim but this is my favorite. The one thing that would make my life perfect (well,almost) would be if the concert performance from Jazz at Lincoln Center were also released on DVD so I could have both, with their different emphasis, to enjoy. Till then this is the more "human", the other walks into catholic mysticism, of the two great performances and it's devastating.

"True Passion"	2005-06-08
- Reviewed By vivelamourboheme
I have had the recording of Stephen Sondheim's Passion for quite some time now. I love Sondheim, but I never could really get into the music very much. The notes and tempos are extremely irregular and are veyr hard to remember, so it seems you are hearing it for the first time every time you listen to it. But then I saw this DVD and I realized the brilliance of the music and the show itself. It plays perfectly into the story. I shouldn't be able to remember the music very well, I shouldn't think it is light and fluffy. It's not at all. My God, this show tore me apart when I saw this. I had no idea how wonderful it was. It is a perfect example of how actors are not just voices, they are people who bring these characters to life. Sondheim's lyrics and James Lapine's book are exquisite and work so well together, you'd think they were written by the same person. The music flows in such a way I would have never imagined listening to the recording. Donna Murphy! She brings one of the most brilliant performances to the stage that I have seen in years. She tore me up inside, made me cry, made me laugh even. I couldn't bear to watch yet she entangled me and made me watch. She's also got an amazing voice to match. I am absolutely in love with her now. Jere Shea is also very good. His voice is pure and melodic and perfect. His acting is very good too, I was surprised. Marin Mazzie is also perfectly convincing as the woman who loves her torrent afair yet wouldn't sacrifice a thing for it. Again, a beautiful voice. This show is also very clever is its staging. The soldiers entrances are always a treat to see. Just the way everything worked together in the show as one is something rarely seen. In this show, something hit home with me and with others I have talked to. Unconditional love, without pretense, without care of sacrifice, true passion is what is shown. Think Shakespeare in Love: if he had written this play instead to show the true nature of love, he would have most difinitively won the bet. If you would like to enjoy the soundtrack, you need to see this first.

"How Can Anyone Not Like This Show?"	2005-05-26
- Reviewed By User: A22MZBJWTC5WF
First, I must say that comparing Sondheim shows to each other is ridiculous. Would you tell a plumber that you liked his sink installation in one house more than in another? Each piece is completely different and should be judged on its own merits. Passion explores the themes of love and beauty from a darker perspective than we are accustomed. The performances are quite good--particularly Donna Murphy's portrayal of Fosca. With the DVD, you get a chance to get closer to Fosca and experience the emotions with her. Ms. Murphy is able to find beauty in desperation. She convincingly takes her character on the immense journey from self-loathing to the belief that she is worthy of love. Her portrayal is nothing short of astonishing. Marin Mazie looks and sounds lovely, and Jere Shea seems to start out a little wooden (although he is paying a soldier and wooden is a desirable trait in soldiers) but has some beautiful and heartfelt moments at the end of the show. If you are a fan of Sondheim, love stories, or excellent acting, this CD is well worth the price. I guarantee that you will think about the show long after it has ended--and that's the mark of good writing.
