One of the most impactful shows in the history of musical theatre comes to the BCP stage.

 

"...this contemporary answer to "La Boheme" rushes forward on an electric current of emotion that is anything but morbid. The styles include not only electric rock but salsa, Motown, be-bop and reggae, with a firm nod to Stephen Sondheim and even a passing one to Burt Bacharach. When the whole ensemble stands at the edge of the stage, singing fervently about the ways of measuring borrowed time (in 'Seasons of Love'), the heart both breaks and soars." (NY TIMES)
