Description
Holding the world record for the longest running musical, The Fantasticks has been beloved by audiences for nearly half a century. Already seen in over 12,000 producions worldwide, it's a classic coming-of-age story and a timeless celebration of love - first love, lost love, and, ultimately, true love.

At the heart of its breathtaking poetry and subtle theatrical sophistication is a purity and simplicity that transcends cultual barriers. Its ingredients are simple: a boy, a girl, two fathers, and a wall. The Fantasticks follows the scheming of the two neighboring fathers who attempt to spark a romance between their children by faking a feud. When a mysterious carnival of illusions rolls into town, the fathers enlist the aid of its enigmatic impresario, El Gallo, only to add an unexpected tangle to their matchmaking web.
