The character of Robert in Stephen Sondheim’s Company is handsome and charming, yet ever so single. Enter reality TV. No, that’s not how it goes, though he sounds like the perfect guy to try for a spot on The Bachelor. But, instead of rollin’ ABC style, this play’s protagonist gets an earful of good tips on the art of relationships, when he observes five couples, each of whom have both ups and downs. Check out final performances of Company by Central Piedmont Community College’s Summer Theatre at Halton Theater through June 27. $15-$21. 8 p.m. CPCC’s Halton Theater, 1206 Elizabeth Ave. 704-330-6534. http://halton.cpcc.edu/.
