We are pleased to bring you David Ovenden's great first look production photos released from Stephen Sondheim's The Frogs, making its UK debut tonight at London's Jermyn Street Theatre.

The latest Broadway version of the rarely performed Sondheim musical, an hilarious send-up of Greek comedy and satire, with a book revised and expanded by Nathan Lane, stars Michael Matus and George Rae.

The Frogs, loosely based on a comedy written in 405 BC by Aristophanes, freely adapted for today by Burt Shevelove, and even more freely adapted by Nathan Lane, with Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, produced by House on the Hill Productions in association with Jermyn Street Theatre and directed by Grace Wessels.
