Named top Seafood Market in New England by Yankee Magazine

says... “If it were any fresher you’d have to throw out a line and catch it yourself.”

Next at The Goodspeed

JUNE 27 - AUG 17

The legendary songs of Elvis Presley ignite a rockin’ romp set in the Fabulous ’50s.

When a guitar-playing stranger on a motorcycle roars into a sleepy town, nothing will be the same. Boy meets girl and soon everybody can’t help falling in love. Mistaken identity, mismatched lovers and the magic of romance come together in a free-wheeling rock and roll comedy. Celebrate the 20th anniversary production of a show that began at Goodspeed with non-stop classics, from “Heartbreak Hotel” and “Hound Dog,” to “Love Me Tender” and “Don’t Be Cruel.”

WRITERS’ NOTES BY RICHARD MALTBY, JR. AND DAVID SHIRE David Shire and I have written two revues: Starting Here, Starting Now (1977, mostly songs of young love), followed by Closer Than Ever (1989, revived and revised in 2012, about more adult relationships). A comment we often heard was that if we were, hypothetically, to put the songs in chronological order, they’d pretty much tell the story of a life. This started us thinking that perhaps we should complete the “story of a life” with a third revue, exploring the third phase of life, the “golden years,” when

songs before. Real life is truly an inventive storyteller. Nothing come up with is ever equal to what reality invents.

And so, we offer you Life: A Musical, Part III: About Time, now having its premiere engagement at Goodspeed’s Terris Theatre from May 24 to June 15. One RICHARD MALTBY, JR. thing we have noticed, in (Lyrics and Director) comments we received as we tested About Time in several workshops, is that no two people seem to see the same show.

There is something primal in look back and see their life’s these personal songs. The full trajectory. About Time is the stories they tell are unique and result, creating a trilogy of revues often surprising, and yet people that we like to call Life: A Musical recognize themselves in them.

(Parts I, II and III).

Audience members seem to bring their own lives to About Time, Like the earlier two revues, About and when they do, their lives DAVID SHIRE Time is made up of songs that become part of the experience (Music) are based on reality, either experiences of attending it. The songs are touching and perceptions we have had in our own lives, complexities we all know and recognize. As or, more commonly, stories that people have told us. Real life has always been our greatest one cast member says late in the show: “Isn’t source material. What people actually feel and life just hilarious!” actually experience is often so different from David and I can’t wait to share About Time what they expect they will feel or experience, and following reality has often led us to with you. story songs that explore circumstances and —Richard Maltby, Jr. and David Shire emotions that have not been explored in

#AboutTimeMusical GOODSPEED’S MISSION STATEMENT

Goodspeed Musicals’ mission is to share the joy of musical theatre; to delight, inspire, and challenge audiences; to nurture creators; and to build and support a broad, diverse, and inclusive community.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

The land on which Goodspeed Musicals is located in East Haddam and Chester, CT is the ancestral land of at least three tribes of Native Americans—the Wangunk, the Mohegan and the Nehantic tribes. We understand that the land which is now Haddam and East Haddam, was purchased from the native people in 1662 for thirty coats—worth about $100. We acknowledge those native Americans and the loss of their homeland—land on which we thrive today.

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE—LEAVING A LEGACY Since its inception, Goodspeed Musicals has particularly benefited from the unique advantages of planned gifts and bequests. Because such gifts provide financial support over time, they have been essential to Goodspeed Musicals’ ability to consistently move from strength to strength, plan for the future with confidence, and ensure millions more will enjoy award-winning productions for generations to come.

WILLIAM H. GOODSPEED LEGACY SOCIETY Goodspeed Musicals thanks the members of the William H. Goodspeed Society who have included a future bequest to Goodspeed Musicals in their wills or estate plans.
