Lucas Grabeel Gets Rave Reviews For His Play The Fantasticks

May 9, 2009 | by Disney Dreaming

Since May 5 Lucas Grabeel has been gracing a California stage with his presence in the play The Fantasticks. Lucas plays alongside Eric McCormack and Harry Groener from the hit television show “Will And Grace.”

The Fantasticks plot line is about two fathers who put up a wall between their homes in an attempt to cause their children to fall in love. Their idea is that if the love is forbidden their kids will strive harder for it. The plan works and the two kids fall in love, but once they realize what their fathers have done they run away from both each other and their parents, only returning later when they realize that even though their love was planned, it is true love and they want it back.

Reviews of Lucas in The Fantasticks say that has “a boy-next-door likability” as well as excellent acting and singing skills. He is also said to exhibit “a confidence and polish beyond his years.”

The play ends on May 17, 2009. If you have seen the show, or plan to see it within the next week, we would love to hear your review of it!
