Saturday Night is a musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and the book by brothers Julius J. Epstein and Philip G. Epstein based on their play Front Porch in Flatbush. The musical was expected to open on Broadway in 1954-1955 but because of the lead producer’s death it was not produced. Following a student production it was staged at the Bridewell Theatre London in 1997 and then in Chicago in 1999 and Off-Broadway in 2000. The musical also ran in the West End in 2009.
