Production Synopsis:

"The Fantasticks" played for over 40 years off-Broadway  and is a wonderful show.  Like "Play It Again Sam" it is a show I worked on in a technical capacity when I was much younger and I thought it would be fun to play the old actor Henry Albertson.  Especially since I would be playing opposite fellow company member Jim Woodbury as Mortimer.  Jim and I had been involved in about four shows prior to this but had never been onstage together for any meaningful amount of time.  Low and behold neither of us would realize what a struggle we would have through the rehearsal process.  However, once the show was up and running, Jim and I had a wondefull time.
