Review: SNAPSHOTS at The Winter Park Playhouse

There’s a particular thrill experiencing the familiar in an unfamiliar way - seeing a favorite dramatic actor in a comedic role, eating a “deconstructed” dish with all the familiar ingredients of a favorite entrée but delivered in a very different way, or watching a new film that revisits a classic story. For fans of musical theatre, and in particular, the songbook of award-winning composer and lyricist, Stephen Schwartz, the musical SNAPSHOTS revisits the familiar (and rare) and weaves Schwartz’ classic melodies into a new tapestry – delivering a narrative that resonates on a deep and human level and explores themes of love, regret, and the passage of time. In the skilled hands of The Winter Park Playhouse, this personal and poignant piece captivates, entertains, and touches the heart in a way that will move you deeply and then have you rushing home to hold tightly to those you love.
