Notes:~ The
off-Broadway production of the musical 'The Fantasticks' has become a
legend in the American theatre. The show opened on 3rd May, 1960 — and
is still running! The original investment of $16,500 that producer Lore
Noto raised to stage musical has been paid and repaid many thousand fold.
And companies — both professional and amateur — keep the show alive in
many languages all over the world. Tom Jones and Harry Schmidt met at the
University of Texas, where they wrote undergraduate shows as a team. This
gentle, whimsical production was their first full show together and their
biggest hit. Try to Remember is its haunting opening and closing
song.
