Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt’s The Fantasticks had a legendary 42-year Off-Broadway run (and then an 11-year revival), suggesting that there’s something strangely captivating about this sweet and simple musical fable.
Matt and Luisa fall in love when their fathers build a wall and pretend to feud. But once the parents put an end to the feud and allow the children to be together, Luisa and Matt decide to go their own ways to seek out their fortunes. In the end, after learning many valuable lessons, they come together to start a newer, more mature love.
“Without a hurt, the heart is hollow,” El Gallo sings to explain why he manipulates the story to turn out the way it does. The Fantasticks pulls at the heartstrings in a way that makes its delights all the more meaningful.
