Flamenco Guitarist Nilko Andreas to Star in THE FANTASTICKS at Music Theater Heritage
Performances are February 5 through 22.
Music Theater Heritage, the professional theater in residence at Crown Center, has announced the cast and creative team for The Fantasticks, starring internationally awarded classical guitarist Nilko Andreas in the role of El Gallo.
Directed by Emily Shackelford, the production will run February 5 through 22 for 13 performances in MTH’s Main Stage Theater, located on the third floor of Crown Center.
"At its heart, The Fantasticks is a love story, celebrating parenthood, friendship, romantic love and heartbreak," Shackelford said. "We watch the characters parse through what is reality and what is illusion, themes that feel ever present in our world today. This piece is bursting with comedy, poetry, rejuvenating songs and timeless advice that stays with you long after you’ve left the theater."
The complete ensemble includes Andreas, Damien Blake, Daniela Rodriguez Del Bosque, Joshua Gleeson, Richard Harris, Ron McGee, Tim Noland, Nsikoh, Aiden Sarmiento, and Ty Tuttle.
The creative team is led by Shackelford with music direction by Ty Tuttle, scenic design by Yi-Chien Lee, lighting design by Michelle Harvey, sound design by Thomas Newby, costume design by Stripes Wilson, and stage management by Lacey Willis.
