STOP THE WORLD I WANT TO GET OFF Plays Middle Village, Closes 8/14
Stop the World - I Want to Get Off is a musical with book, music, and lyrics by Leslie Bricusse and Anthony Newley. It is a thought-provoking tale about the fleeting nature of worldly success. The hero of the show, Littlechap, attempts to apply some braking effect on his world before it spins out of control. Set against the backdrop of a circus, it focuses on Littlechap, whose first major step towards improving his lot is to marry Evie, his boss' daughter.
Saddled with the responsibilities of a family, he allows his growing dissatisfaction with his existence to lead him into the arms of various women-Russian Anya, German Ilse, and American Ginnie-as he searches for something better than he has, only to realize in the twilight of his life what he always had-the love of his wife- was more than enough to sustain him.
