WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
This rousing musical springs to life on stage during the holiday season, poking fun at optimism
and following Candide on his quest for his true love with songs like "Make Our Garden Grow" and "Glitter and Be Gay." The 20th-century classic will be reinvigorated in a new adaptation by director Mary Zimmerman, featuring her inventive, visually stunning style and matched with Leonard Bernstein's ravishing score, based on Voltaire's classic satire.

RE:A Winner!
This is a fantastic performance. The acting, the singing, the orchestra...all terrific! Cunagondes companion, the old woman, is especially remarkable. The plot is convoluted and challenging to keep up with if you dont already know the story, but sit back and just be entertained.
