Falsettos
FUSE Theatre of CT presented William Finn and James Lapine’s groundbreaking, Tony-winning musical Falsettos June 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 at Bregamos Community Theater in New Haven, CT.
Falsettos is described as, “hilarious, heartbreaking and utterly unique. A contemporary musical about family, relationships, bar mitzvahs, baseball and AIDS. When Marvin leaves his wife Trina and son Jason to be with his lover Whizzer, tempers flare, problems escalate and everyone learns to grow up.” Director Lara Morton states, "Falsettos, like life itself, is a mass of contradictions. It is heartbreaking, yes, but it is also a buoyant, effervescent, wacky, hilarious, musically-complex and joyful show about family, friendship, love, sex, Judaism, parenting, growth, and self-discovery. This musical tackles giant themes in larger-than-life ways, and somehow manages to also feel very personal and intimate. I could not be more excited to be working with this incredible cast and brilliant team of creatives to bring this important show to life in the heart of New Haven during Pride Month, in a very unique, up-close-and-personal way. At a time in our history in which both the queer and Jewish communities are being actively targeted by hate, Falsettos offers hope, and illustrates the transformative and healing power of love."
