Stephen Sondheim and George Furth’s now-beloved musical “Merrily We Roll Along” was a massive flop when it premiered in 1981, lasting on Broadway for only two weeks. But a new production at New York Theater Workshop has opened to rave reviews, signaling the show might have found a new life. Stars Daniel Radcliffe and Lindsay Mendez join us to discuss the production, and why it’s working this time.
