Book Reviews of The Fantasticks: The Complete Illustrated Text Plus the Official Fantasticks Scrapbook and History of the Musical
Book Review: Why, it's fantastic!
Summary: 5 Stars
Who would have guessed that such a simple, straightfoward musical would be the longest running show in New York history? Read this copy of the libretto, and you'll know why. The show is very simple and very honest. It has drama and lighthearted comedy in just the right amounts to create what is, in many ways, the perfect musical. This volume also contains lots of extra information about the show, including the lyrics to a new song written for the show in its later years, and a number of photos. The music is missing, of course, but even without the OCR to the show, you get a great sense here of what makes The Fantasticks so, well, fantastic.
