"The Fantasticks" creator Tom Jones rewrites classic musical as gay love story

June 16, 2022 | Playbill

Jones (B.F.A., Theatrical Design, 1949) and Harvey Schmidt's The Fantasticks tells an allegorical story loosely based on Edmund Rostand's 1894 play The Romancers (Les Romanesques), concerning two neighboring parents who trick their children into falling in love by pretending to feud.
