FreeFall Opens New Season With THE FANTASTICKS!
by BWW News Desk - September 10, 2018
freeFall's 2018/2019 season opens with our most requested musical, THE FANTASTICKS. "Try to Remember" a time when this romantic charmer wasn't enchanting audiences around the world. THE FANTASTICKS is the longest running musical in the world and with good reason: at the heart of its breathtaking poetry and subtle theatrical sophistication is a purity and simplicity that transcends cultural barriers.
