High Fidelity: The Musical
Hart House Theatre :: January 15, 2010 - January 30, 2010
 CANADIAN PREMIERE “A socially acute contemporary love story about people who are obsessed with, & define themselves by, pop music & culture. The hero’s life is a soundtrack & the big moments are songs.” (Playbill 2006)
Canadian Premiere High Fidelity The Musical music by Tom Kitt lyrics by Amanda Green book by David Lindsay-Abaire based upon the novel by Nick Hornby directed by Mark Selby produced by Hart House Theatre Jan 15-30 3 week run (11 performances) Week 1: Fri-Sat 8pm Week 2: Wed-Sat 8pm Week 3: Wed-Sat 8pm & Sat 2pm matinée Single Tickets $25 / $15 students & seniors ($10 Student Tickets every Wednesday Night) reserved seating ~~~~~~~~~~ Hart House Theatre continues the tradition of producing Canadian Premieres of cutting-edge Musicals. High Fidelity (a musical based on the novel and film of the same name) tells the story of a young man in ‘quarterlife crisis’ – he’s a young adult who gets dumped by his girlfriend, has no money, a cruddy apartment, his job has no upward mobility, and he can’t seem to get off of the downward spiral that is taking him nowhere. Through his love of music, he grows out of his self-centred view of the world and finds happiness. Songwriters Tom Kitt and Amanda Green comment: “The wit, humour, and humanity of Nick Hornby’s characters and story naturally lends itself to musical treatment. It is a socially acute contemporary love story about people who are obsessed with, and define themselves by, pop music and culture. The hero’s life is a soundtrack and the big moments are songs.” (Playbill 2006). The original score includes styles from pop music, blues and rock ballads with nuances in the flavour of Bruce Springsteen, the Beastie Boys, the Indigo Girls, Aretha Franklin, and Guns N’ Roses. Director, Mark Selby, a Toronto based Musician and Theatre Artist, leads the production team after mentoring under Richard Ouzounian on Hart House Theatre’s Blockbuster Hit Jerry Springer-The Opera.
