The Fantasticks

Opens Friday, April 13 at the Cottage Theatre in Cottage Grove.

“Try to remember the kind of September when life was slow and oh so mellow … try to remember, and, if you remember, then follow … ” OK, it’s April; we don’t want to think about September, but point is, the music (even the not-so-funny “Rape Song”) romps. And the narrative arc of idealistic love burnt out, chastened and re-formed? Who wouldn’t want to watch that? “Follow, follow, follow, follow, follow, follow, follow, follow … follow … ” Show dates are April 13-15, 20-22, 27 & 28.
