Book and Lyrics - Barry Harman
"The Little Comedy" based on a story by - Arthur Schnitzler
"Summer Share" based on a play by - Jules Renard
Two one act musicals take varied looks at romance seekers. The first is a delightful romp through the sexual ennui of turn of the century Vienna based on Schnitzler's tale The Little Comedy. Act 2 is a modern look at affection and disaffection in a two couple summer house in the Hamptons based on the Jules Renard play Summer Share. An Off Off Broadway sensation that successfully moved to Broadway, Romance / Romance is a perfect change from the modern mega musical.
