Bit to Do [1]
By Brian Kennedy [3]

Have a fantastic time by watching Indiana University, Southeast's production of The Fantasticks, which opens on Friday.

The Fantasticks performances will take place on Feb. 10, 11, 17, and 18 at 8 p.m. each night.  Matinees, meanwhile, will go on Feb. 12 and 19 at 2:30 p.m. each day.  All performances are to happen in the Robinson Theater at the Ogle Center, located on the IUS campus at 4201 Grant Line Road [4] in New Albany, IN.

Tickets for each show are $12 for adults, $6 for students, and $6 for senior citizens.  Tickets can be purchased at the Ogle Center box office or by calling 812-941-2525.  More information on the show can also be found at the IUS theatre arts [5] website.

In the musical The Fantasticks, two fathers look to make life a little more chaotic for Louisa and Matt, who have fallen in love with each other.  They do this by making a mock abduction.  The whole point is to help their children discover a deeper meaning of love.  

Jim Hesselman directed the production, which Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt created.  

Following The Fantasticks, IUS will present Waiting for Godot.  The Samuel Beckett-created production will go on in April.
