As a tractor factory, the cavernous Uris might pass muster, but as a theater, no. Irony is Sondheim's razor, and its cutting edge is equally present in bittersweet ballads (Pretty Women, Johanna) or in A Little Priest, an antic account of what kinds of pies the varying professions taste like ("Here's a politician so oily/ It's served with a doily...
