New Conservatory Theatre Center crowns its 2015-16 season with the West Coast premiere of a whimsical reimagining of On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, the classic American musical featuring music by Burton Lane, lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner, and a new book by Peter Parnell, based on the original book by Lerner. This mesmerizing and enchanting new look at the classic musical is just your typical musical comedy – about hypnosis, a gay florist with commitment issues, a love triangle with a therapist, and past life as a 1940s chanteuse.
On a Clear Day… is the rare original musical that is not based on source material. It broke ground by dealing with paranormal and supernatural experience — past lives, reincarnation, ESP and the seemingly limitless power of the mind. The musical originally opened on Broadway in 1965, starring Barbara Harris as a chain smoker who can hear phones before they ring and make flowers grow before your eyes. This new version of On a Clear Day was developed at The Vineyard Theatre in New York, and as part of New York Stage and Film and Vassar's Powerhouse Theater, and ultimately running unsuccessfully run on Broadway under the direction of Michael Mayer and starring Harry Connick, Jr.
