This marks the Indiana premier of the 1992 Broadway hit.Winner of two Tony Awards for "best musical score" and "best book", "Falsettos" is an intimate comedy/dramaabout a gay man who, against all odds, tries to combine his traditional and non-traditional families into a happy,cohesive group.You'll MeetThe Most Fascinating PeopleAt History-Makers...History Makers — A Rare Find Gallery4040 East 82nd St. Dept. 08, Indianapolis IN 46250Buy &amp;amp; Sell Autographs &amp;amp; Memorabilia (317) 842-5828 ext. 08Send $2 for investment quality autograph &amp;amp; memorabilia catalog.OUTlines w-tSet entirely to music and sung throughout, thiswarm-hearted show boasts a bouncy, contemporary' musical score. Alternately witty and passionate, the deftmusic and lyrics prompted mam' critics to comparecomposer William Finn to the legendary StephenSondheim. Among the song titles -"The Thrill of FirstLove", "Four Jews in a Room Bitching", "Making aHome", Father to Son", and "Unlikely Lovers".Written by William Finn and James Lapine, theshow is actually a combination of two separate one-actmusicals: "March of the "Falsettos'" (written in 1979)and its sequel. "Falsettoland" (1990). During their off-Broadway runs, the two shows had only a small cultfollowing. But when the authors combined them underthe umbrella title palscttos, they came up with a tremendous Broadway success New York Times critic FrankRich gave the show a rave review, particularly praisingthe casual yet honest treatment of its gay characters:"Falsettos docs not depict homosexuals as abject victimsof prejudice and disease, nor campy figures of fun, but assometimes likable, sometimes fallible, sometimes witty,sometimes smarmy, sometimes noble people no more orless extraordinary than the rest of the world" "In otherwords, gay people are just part of the family," Richcontinued, "people who fight and argue and ultimatelyAt the topof the show, we meet Marvin, a well-to-do,boyish and somewhat neurotic yuppie who's just left anunhappy marriage to move in with his gay lover - anattractive but tempestuous athlete name Whizzer.

Two additional characters arc introduced in the second act —Charlotte and Cordelia, Marvin's beloved friends, comically referred to as "the lesbians from next door." But thestory takes a serious turn as "Falsettos" moves from the' 70s to the' 80s, and Whizzer contracts a mysterious "gayvirus".
