The Fantasticks presented by Theatre Extempore
The all-time classic musical that ran for 42 years off-Broadway comes to The MAIN. Boy meets girl. Parents fake a feud to get them together. It works (until it doesn’t), in a moonlit tale of growing up, falling in love, and learning what that really means.The Fantasticks is a lyrical, timeless celebration of imagination, heartbreak, and hope that skewers romantic tropes with charm, wit, and a cardboard moon; reminding us that real love is rarely as poetic as the song—and twice as complicated.
