“They Were You”
By: Lauren Hyatt
You have a best friend don’t you? A best friend that you consider family? I would say probably a majority of us do. Now, who wouldn’t want your kids to get married? That way they would really be family! But the plan is, how do you pull it off? In The Swamp Fox Player’s The Fantasticks, explores this very quandary. Is it feasible? If they do fall in love what could go wrong?
The Fantasticks is lovely and very funny. This family friendly show will get people of all ages talking. Just wait and see what the Narrator has inside his magic box! Yes, this musical is about two fathers who just want their kids to fall in love with each other. But it also about so much more. That our parents want the best for us, but it is up to us to figure out what is best for us.
There is still plenty of time to see this show and make sure you do. The Fantasticks is running at The Strand Theatre in Historic Georgetown; May 21, 26, 27, & 28 June 2, 3, 4, at 8pm. May 29 & June 5 at 2:30pm. For tickets call (843)-527-2924. I promise you, you won’t be sorry you did.
