The Whitworth University Theatre and Music Department present: The Fantasticks: A Concert Performance Book. The Fantasticks is a highly stylized production that combines aspects of musical theatre, pageant performance, circus and commedia dell’arte. Funny, tender and irresistibly romantic, this beloved classic follows two star-crossed lovers as they lose each other and ultimately reunite. As the world’s longest-running musical, it has captivated audiences with its gentle humor and iconic songs including Try to Remember, Soon It’s Gonna Rain and They Were You.
