THE FANTASTICKS

Streaming on-demand now

This performance is available to stream on-demand now, but you have until March 2022 to make a purchase. Once started viewing, you have 48-hours to finish it.

Tickets: $25 per device (up to 4 people).

Music by Harvey Schmidt and lyrics by Tom Jones. Stage and music direction by Chris Will with Simone Jolivet Manuel serving as the Assistant Director and choreographer.

There's always time to remember this romantic fable about a boy, a girl, their two fathers, and a love that grows with each season. "Try To Remember" a time when this romantic charmer wasn't enchanting audiences around the world. The Fantasticks is the longest-running musical 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.
