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.

The breathtaking Broadway production required no less than two directors, Harold Prince and Michael Bennett. Follies represents the only time either shared directorial credit.
