Masquers Playhouse is proud to present the West Coast premiere of the hit 2012 version of this Off-Broadway classic! Intimate, heartfelt and funny as hell, Closer Than Ever is an evening of song that celebrates personal triumphs and acknowledges the anxieties, the loss and “the lingering regrets connected to the point in life when it is too late to start over.” (New York Times) It’s about growing up and growing older, getting lost, gaining love and getting loopy.
“Step aside, all you apple-cheeked newspaper boys and American idiots, you little mermaids and littler orphans. The grown-ups have something to say!”
(New York Times)
