Who was Barbara Follett… and what really happened to her? Perfect World is a mystery musical set in the 1920s, telling the true story of a child prodigy who vanished at 25. From the age of four, she wrote prolifically, created her own utopia, Farksolia, and published two acclaimed novels by 14, but life and love conspired against her. The musical follows her remarkable life adventure and the police hunt that followed, driven by three voices who never gave up—Young Barbara, adult Barbara, and her mother Helen—alongside Captain Stahl, the lead investigator. Step into her world of ambition, imagination, and mystery, leading to a disappearance that changed everything.
The creators of PERFECT WORLD discuss how the true story of a brilliant young novelist who vanished in 1939 became the inspiration for their new musical, playing Nov. 1-9 at the El Portal Theatre.
BroadwayWorld has an exclusive video first look inside rehearsals for Perfect World, a brand-new musical directed and choreographed by Broadway’s Kay Cole.
A new, mystery musical aet in the twenties Perfect World tells the true-life story of Barbara Follett, a precocious child writer who had an extraordinary love of writing.
