The Fantasticks
Description
Given its 42-year Off Broadway incarnation and worldwide popularity, The Fantasticks tends to work; director Sean Kelly's entertaining production is no exception. The earnest show tracks the tale of neighboring youngsters whose dads scheme to make them fall in love. The cast's musical delivery is robust, though its comic business is a bit predictable. While the ensemble plays broadly, Sean Effinger-Dean and Emma Rosenthal as the young lovers sketch remarkably detailed, sweetly comic portraits, utterly charming in their teenage bumbling and swooning.—Megan Powell
