Review: WE AIN’T EVER GONNA BREAK UP: THE HYMON AND PARFUNKEL MUSICAL at Village Theatre
by Jay Irwin - May 23, 2026

And then there’s the current show from Village Theatre, “We Ain’t Ever Gonna Break Up: The Hymon and Parfunkel Musical”, a show bold enough to create a made-up songwriting duo and spend their time poking fun at the genre they attempt to fit into, the bio-musical. But, without recognizable songs to hook you, we’re left with the strength of the book. Luckily the book is hilarious, assuming you’re a fan of the well-crafted groaner. Which I am.
