Those are the closing words in Stephen Sondheim's"Road Show," and they've lingered in my mind since seeing Chicago Shakespeare Theater's excellent new production of this 100-minute, intermission-free chamber musical — probably because they so accurately foretell the end of the twisting, 14-year road traveled by Sondheim and John Weidman (book) in making it.

In the years since Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman's "Bounce" bowed at the Goodman Theatre in 2003, replete with Hal Prince, Broadway stars, press conferences and expectations to match, it has become clear to Sondheim watchers that this particular show touched an especially personal chord with the great composer. That passion could be seen in the dogged way Sondheim (who celebrates his 84th birthday this week) stuck with this late-in-life project about the picaresque, real-life adventurers / planners / designers / developers Wilson and Addison Mizner as it morphed, without getting much external love, from a show called "Wise Guys" to "Bounce" to "Road Show." It can be seen in the 113 pages Sondheim devotes to its various lyrical iterations in his assiduously detailed volume, "Look, I Made a Hat." And, of course, the sentiment has emerged from Sondheim's own mouth in many a public forum over the last couple of years. I heard it with my own ears. Several times.

"Addison and Wilson Mizner were born within a year and a half of each other in the early 1870s in Benicia, CA. During the course of their long, colorful and often chaotic lives, they criss-crossed the country - sometimes separately, sometimes together - trying their hands at a dizzying array of different enterprises and pursuits from prospecting for gold in the Yukon to promoting a utopian real-estate venture during the Florida land boom. Addison died in Palm Beach in 1933, leaving behind a handful of uniquely designed Mizner houses. Wilson died within weeks of him, in Hollywood. ROAD SHOW is the story of their lives - or at any rate our version of it." - Stephen Sondheim & John Weidman
