Highlands Summer Festival Presents The Fantasticks

Norther Lights Performing Arts Pavilion
Haliburton

July 2, 2007 to July 13, 2007
The longest running off-Broadway musical (17,162 performances) The Fantasticks is a classic coming of age story. A twisted take on ‘boy meets the girl next door’, The Fantasticks tells the story of Matt and Louisa who are tricked into falling in love by their fathers, who pretend to feud. With subtle theatrical sophistication, this timeless fable of love manages to be nostalgic and universal at the same time. Funny, poignant, pure in its everlasting message, The Fantasticks will you humming its familiar tunes. Featuring the beloved songs ‘Try to Remember’ and Soon It’s Gonna Rain’ this is a celebration of love-first love, lost love and ultimately, true love.Phone: 705-457-9933Email: tickets@highlands
