H
al Prince, a
Broadway di-
rector and pro-
ducer who
pushed the
boundaries of musical thea-
ter with such groundbreak-
ing shows as “The Phantom
of the Opera,” “Cabaret,”
“Company” and “Sweeney
Todd” and won 21 Tony
Awards, has died. He was 91.
Prince’s publicist, Rick
Miramontez, said Prince
died Wednesday after a brief
illness in Reykjavik, Iceland.
Prince was known for his
fluid, cinematic director’s
touch and was unpre-
dictable and uncompromis-
ing in his choice of stage ma-
terial. He often picked chal-
lenging, offbeat subjects to
musicalize, such as a mur-
derous, knife-wielding bar-
ber or the 19th century open-
ing of Japan to the West.
Along the way, he helped
create some of Broadway’s
most enduring musical hits,
first as a producer of such
shows as “The Pajama
Game,” “Damn Yankees,”
“West Side Story,” “A Funny
Thing Happened on the Way
to the Forum” and “Fiddler
on the Roof.” He later be-
came a director, overseeing
such landmark musicals as
“Cabaret,” “Company,” “Fol-
lies,” “Sweeney Todd,”
“Evita” and “The Phantom
of the Opera.
Andrew Lloyd Webber
told the Associated Press
that it was impossible to
overestimate the impor-
tance of Prince to musical
theater.
“All of modern musical
theater owes practically
everything to him.”
Lloyd Webber recalled
that, as a young man, he had
written the music for the flop
“Jeeves” and was feeling low.
Prince wrote him a letter
urging him not to be discour-
aged. The two men later met
and Lloyd Webber said he
was thinking of next doing a
musical about Evita Peron.
Prince told him to bring it to
him first.
“That was game-chang-
ing for me. Without that, I
often wonder where I would
be,” Lloyd Webber said.
Tributes poured in from
generations of Broadway
figures, including composer
David Yazbek, who called
Prince “a real giant,” and
Bernadette Peters, who
called it a “sad day.” Com-
poser Jason Robert Brown
hailed Prince’s “commit-
ment and an enthusiasm
and a work ethic and an end-
less well of creative passion.”
In addition to Lloyd
Webber, Prince worked with
some of the best-known
composers and lyricists in
musical theater, including
Leonard Bernstein, Jerry
Bock and Sheldon Harnick,
John Kander and Fred Ebb,
and, most notably, Stephen
Sondheim.
“I don’t do a lot of analyz-
ing of why I do something,”
Prince once told the Associ-
ated Press. “It’s all instinct.”
Only rarely, he said, would
he take on an idea just for the
money. “Theater is not
about that. It is about cre-
ating something. The fact
that some of my shows have
done so well is sheer luck.”
Born in New York on Jan.
30, 1928, Harold Prince was
the son of affluent parents
for whom Saturday mati-
nees in the theater with their
children were a regular oc-
currence.
“I’ve had theater ambi-
tions all of my life,” he said in
his memoir. “I cannot go
back so far that I don’t re-
member where I wanted to
work.”
During his more than 50-
year career, Prince received
a record 21 Tony Awards, in-
cluding two special Tonys —
one in 1972 when “Fiddler”
became Broadway’s long-
est-running musical, and
another in 1974 for a revival of
“Candide.” He also was a re-
cipient of a Kennedy Center
Honor.
He earned a reputation
as a detail-heavy director.
Barbara Cook, in her mem-
oir “Then & Now”, wrote: “I
admire him greatly, but he
also did not always make
things easy, for one basic
reason: he wants to direct
every detail of your perform-
ance down to the way you
crook your pinky finger.”
Amusical about Prince
called “Prince of Broadway”
opened in Japan in 2015 and
landed on Broadway in 2017.
It was with Sondheim,
who was the lyricist for
“West Side Story,” that
Prince developed his most
enduring creative relation-
ship. He produced “A Funny
Thing Happened on the Way
to the Forum” (1962), the
first Broadway show for
which Sondheim wrote both
music and lyrics.
They cemented their
partnership in 1970 with
“Company.” Prince pro-
duced and directed this in-
novative, revue-like musical
that followed the travails of
Bobby, a perpetual New
York bachelor ever search-
ing for the right woman.
“Company” was followed in
quick succession by “Follies”
(1971), which Prince co-di-
rected with Michael Ben-
nett; “A Little Night Music”
(1973); “Pacific Overtures”
(1976); and “Sweeney Todd”
(1979).
Their work together
stopped in 1981 after the
short-lived “Merrily We Roll
Along,” which lasted only 16
performances. It wasn’t to
resume until 2003 when
Prince and Sondheim col-
