Closer Than Ever

The Hudson Theatre Ensemble presents Closer Than Ever, a romantic musical revue by composer David Shire and lyricist Richard Maltby Jr. Each song is an intimate tale about love, security, happiness — and holding onto them in a world that pulls you in a hundred directions at once. Maltby and Shire bring their celebrated craft and contemporary sensibility to songs about aging, mid-life crisis, altering relationships, doors opening and closing as life moves on, second marriages, and role reversals with parents, as well as wicked satirical jabs at working couples and unrequited love.
