Tickets: €15/€12
After its sellout run here last year in The Mill Studio this show is back by popular demand! The stage is a wooden platform, the scenery a fragile cardboard moon.

THe musical was the winner of the Vernon Rice Award for "Outstanding Contribution to the Off-Broadway Theatre". Most of all, however The Fantasticks is a boy, a girl and an audience's memory...
