On his 35th birthday, perpetual bachelor Robert contemplates his unmarried life as he observes the relationships of his five married couple friends. Through a series of vignettes revealing the compromises, frustrations, and quiet joys of partnership, Bobby must decide whether being alive is enough, or whether being alive with someone else is what truly matters.

Company is a musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by George Furth. The original 1970 production was nominated for a record-setting 14 Tony Awards, winning six. Company was among the first book musicals to deal with contemporary dating, marriage, and divorce, and is a notable example of a concept musical lacking a linear plot. In a series of vignettes, Company follows bachelor Bobby interacting with his married friends, who throw a party for his 35th birthday.
