That is what critics have said about MIDNIGHT AT THE NEVER GET, the 2017 Bistro Award winning musical and Mac Award nominee, which will have a production this summer at the Provincetown Inn beginning July 24th, 2017.
With book, music and lyrics by Mark Sonnenblick, MIDNIGHT AT THE NEVER GET features a sultry score fashioned after the American Songbook and imagines two men who never existed at a time that very much did. Trevor Copeland and Arthur Brightman have the perfect New York romance. In 1965, it's also against the law. Set in the back room of The Never Get, an illegal Greenwich Village gay bar, they put together a show called Midnight, a queer nightclub act where Arthur writes love songs for Trevor to sing to a man. But as they hurtle towards the end of the decade and tensions in the Village reach a breaking point, the lovers find themselves caught in a relationship they cant control and a movement they don't understand.
MIDNIGHT AT THE NEVER GET will run from July 24th to September 3 and perform 7 shows weekly. The Mayflower Room of the Provincetown Inn will be transformed into The Never Get, giving audience members a unique immersive experience as they are transported back in time to a cabaret bar in Greenwich Village, circa 1965.
