The Fantasticks is a romantic comedy in three acts, originally written in French by Edmond Rostand and translated into English by Barrett H. Clark. The play was first performed in 1900 and has since become a classic of the theatrical canon. The story follows two neighboring fathers who feign a feud in order to trick their children, Luisa and Matt, into falling in love. The plan works, but when the children discover the truth, they rebel and run away together. The rest of the play explores their journey and the challenges they face as they navigate their new life together. The Fantasticks is known for its whimsical, poetic language and its use of meta-theatrical elements, such as a narrator who addresses the audience directly. It has been adapted numerous times for stage and screen, and remains a beloved favorite of theater-goers around the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
