David Shire and Richard Maltby Jr.’s 'Closer Than Ever' exploded onto the Off-Broadway stage at the historic Cherry Lane Theatre in 1989, running for an astonishing 312 performances and winning the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Musical. Conceived as a highly sophisticated, multi-layered contemporary musical revue spectacular that completely discards traditional linear book structures, the fast-paced performance pieces together over two dozen insightful songs examining modern middle-age anxieties, marriages, and affairs.
