Recorded in 2010, this episode features a rare and revealing interview with the man who redefined the modern musical.


A towering figure in theatre, Sondheim combined lyrical brilliance with emotional depth, reshaping Broadway with works like Company, Sweeney Todd, and Into the Woods. Sharp, introspective, and endlessly curious, he was both a master craftsman and a restless innovator.


In this conversation with The Telegraph’s Mick Brown, Sondheim reflects on his extraordinary career, his formative years under the mentorship of Oscar Hammerstein, the anatomy of a great musical - and, in moments of striking honesty, his struggles with therapy, ageing, and the complexities of love.
