| 4/6/26 |  Sunday in the Park With George | On this episode of Know the Snow, Michel and Anika take a deep dive into Sunday in the Park with George—the luminous, pointillist masterpiece by Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine. Inspired by Georges Seurat and his iconic painting A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, this Pulitzer Prize–winning musical explores the tension between art and life, legacy and love. They unpack the show’s innovative structure, its hauntingly intricate score, and the emotional cost of creating something that lasts. From George’s obsessive pursuit of perfection to Dot’s yearning for connection, Michael and Anika examine how the musical asks one of its central questions: what do we sacrifice to make something meaningful—and is it worth it? Whether you’re a die-hard Sondheim fan or new to the piece, this episode will help you see the dots—and the bigger picture—more clearly. | — | ||||||
