Talk about a time-proven
audience-pleaser! "Try To Remember" a time when this romantic charmer
wasn't enchanting audiences around the world. "The Fantasticks" is the
longest-running production of any kind in the world, and with good reason: at
the heart of its breathtaking poetry and subtle theatrical sophistication is a
purity and simplicity that transcends cultural barriers. The result is a
timeless fable of love that manages to be nostalgic and universal at the same
time.
With its minimal costumes, small band and virtually non-existent set, "The
Fantasticks" is an intimate show which may be performed in virtually any space,
engaging the audience's imagination and showcasing a strong ensemble cast. Its
moving tale of young lovers who become disillusioned, only to discover a more
mature, meaningful love is punctuated by a bountiful series of catchy,
memorable songs, many of which have become standards.
