Description "The Fantasticks is the longest running musical of all time. It opened in 1960 and is still running in the same off Broadway theatre today. It is performed countless times a year across America and Canada. This 'sophisticated story about innocence' is getting an innovative production at Rep.; to our knowledge, this is the only production ever to include a Hills Hoist."
