The FANTASTICKS!
July 23 - 27, 29 - Aug 3
Book and Lyrics by Tom Jones
Music by Harvey Schmidt
Directed by Sean Stone. The Fantasticks, by Tom Jones & Harvey Schmidt, is the world's longest running musical - running for over 52 years in Manhattan and entrancing generations of audiences the world over..The Fantasticks is a funny and romantic musical about a boy, a girl, two fathers and a wall. The narrator, El Gallo, originally played by Jerry Orbach, asks the audience to use their imagination and follow him into a world of moonlight and magic. The boy and the girl fall in love, grow apart, and finally find their way back to each other after realizing the truth in El Gallo's words that "without a hurt, the heart is hollow". The famous score, which includes the classics Try To Remember,They Were You and Soon It's Gonna Rain, is as timeless as the story itself. Performances are July 23 - 26 & 29 - Aug 2 at 7:30 PM and July 27 & Aug 3 at 4:00 PM at the Mallardi Cabaret Theatre on Elk at Second. Tickets: $25 Adults, $15 Students. Doors open at 7:00 PM or 3:30 PM.

About us
|
The Crested Butte Mountain Theatre was born in the summer of 1972 by an energetic, talented group of people who had the vision to see a remote community provide some of its own unique culture. The first show was Dark of the Moon, played against the backdrop of a full moon rising from behind Crested Butte Mountain. Spectators sat on blankets in the grass, enthralled by the astonishing event unfolding before them. On stage were their friends - acting, singing, playing, and dancing. Today, we continue that tradition with a state of the art lighting system and a newly designed theatre. We welcome you to join us in 2014 as a participant, volunteer or guest, young and old alike, and help us celebrate our 5th decade of community theatre.
