About the Show

Two one-act plays reimagined as a musical about chance meetings and lost loves rekindled.

Reunions is a new musical adaptation of two classic one-act plays, each centered on lovers who encounter each other again after many years apart. The Twelve Pound Look, based on J.M. Barrie’s play, is set in Edwardian London, where a man poised for knighthood is confronted by his past and questions of social class, women’s independence, and the cost of ambition. A Sunny Morning, from Spain’s Quintero Brothers, unfolds in a Madrid park, where two elderly characters discover unexpected memories and the possibility of renewed affection.

"The production’s lyrics can sometimes get lost amid in the swirl of movement and sound, but the score sways with textures and stirs"

"Reunions, their musicalized pairing of two plays... is a welcome night of light and airy entertainment, but one that’s disappointingly short on flavor."

"It's just not as flavorful. Pleasant? Totally. Charming? Frequently. But static? Unfortunately, that too."

Beautifully directed by Gabriel Barre, an elegant evening worthy of its Edwardian ancestry.

Breezy, charming and, occasionally, with a bit of social commentary.

Reunions proves less a celebration of theatrical rediscovery than a reminder of how easily good ideas can falter when not matched by execution worthy of their promise.

"some charming ditties, fine period costumes and note-perfect performances, particularly by a couple of beloved old hands of the New York stage."
