The Fantasticks at The Provincetown Theater.
The East Coast premiere of a newly re-imagined adaptation of Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt’s landmark musical, The Fantasticks. While retaining the show’s timelessly romantic score (“Soon It’s Gonna Rain,” “I Can See It,” “Try to Remember…”), librettist Tom
Jones has revised his original script of The Fantasticks to find the young lovers Matt and Luisa have become -- Matt and Lewis! Moreover, they aren’t being pushed into each other’s arms by their prankster, gardening fathers, but rather by their prankster, gardening mothers! With fresh twists on all the characters, the summer-long run of The Fantasticks in Provincetown – in an adaptation that debuted in 2022 at the Flint Repertory Theatre in Michigan -- is a musical theater event not to be missed. Check out our family-friendly show being presented through July and August, appropriate for children aged 10 and up, and part of Provincetown Family week (July 22 - 29).
