Honesdale High School proudly presents You're A Good Man Charlie Brown.
YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN is a 1967 musical comedy with music and lyrics by Clark Gesner, based on the characters created by cartoonist Charles M. Schultz in his comic strip Peanuts.
Synopsis
Charlie Brown and the rest of the friends battle with kites, school, baseball and misunderstandings before finally coming to realize what makes them truly happy. A charming revue of vignettes and songs, spanning the months from Valentine’s Day to Beethoven Day from wild optimism to utter despair.
In this revised version, with additional music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa and dialogue by Michael Mayer, the sweet, joyful innocence of the Peanuts gang is maintained, but a fresh insouciance and playfulness is revealed.
The new script features two new songs, particularly funny dialogue, and new, catchy orchestrations.
