http://www.playbill.com/multimedia/video "Merrily We Roll Along," the Stephen Sondheim-George Furth musical that famously tells its characters' 25-year history by moving backward in time, is complex enough without the added burden of a short rehearsal process for the new Encores! concert production. But principals Celia Keenan-Bolger, Colin Donnell, Adam Grupper, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Elizabeth Stanley are up for the challenge, juggling the story's "magic-trick" construction that has them playing jaded, middle-age adults in Act One and eager showbiz wannabes at the climax. James Lapine directs.
