Love is a Many Splintered Thing is a fast-paced, zippy show about what else? relationships, looked at through nostalgic Top-40 hit songs from the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s. A company of six takes the audience on a journey from high school through adulthood, tracing the paths that each friend eventually follows. Incorporating established song lyrics to tell a new story in a unique way, Love is a Many Splintered Thing features recognizable hits from everyone from Neil Diamond to Cher, Connie Francis to Elton John, Liza Minnelli to india.arie. Tony Award-winning actor/singer/dancer Hinton Battle arranged the music, weaving songs of falling in love (The Look of Love and Dizzy) together with songs of sexual desires (Lady Willpower and Should I Do It?), telling stories of loves aftermath (Maybe This Time), truths about boys (The Wanderer and Did You Ever Have To Make Up Your Mind?), and the realities of marriage (Wedding Bell Blues and Bridge Over Troubled Water), the end of the honeymoon (You Dont Bring Me Flowers), betrayal (Does He Love You?), and ultimately loves redemption (Baby Come Back) and renewal (After All and Everlasting Love). Be careful: you might get Hooked on a Feeling despite friends warning you Dont Fall in Love With a Dreamer, until you end up with Wedding Bell Blues.
