Side By Side By Sondheim – Exclusive backstage video interviews

Last week at Sydney’s Theatre Royal, Enda Markey produced a star studded charity performance of Side By Side By Sondheim to raise funds and awareness for The White Ribbon Foundation – Australia’s campaign to stop violence against women.

Led by Broadway and West End star Ruthie Henshall, the concert was peppered with performers from some of Australia’s most successful musicals.
