It's "Tragedy Tomorrow, Comedy Tonight"!
Forum is a great farce - one of the funniest musicals ever written.
The show takes comedy back to its roots, combining situations based on 2000
year-old comedies by Roman
playwright Plautus with the wild energy of classic vaudeville. The result is a
non-stop laugh fest in which a crafty
slave (Pseudolus) struggles to win the hand of a beautiful but slow-witted
courtesan (Philia) for his young
master (Hero), in exchange for his freedom.
