Review: "We Ain't Ever Gonna Break Up: The Hymon and Parfunkel Musical" at Village Theatre

Bio-musicals can be divisive, but Village Theatre's "We Ain't Ever Gonna Break Up: The Hymon and Parfunkel Musical" offers a strong book that could win over even the skeptics.

Review: "We Ain't Ever Gonna Break Up: The Hymon and Parfunkel Musical" at Village Theatre

Dear Readers, the bio-musical is a tricky thing. Some love them, some hate them. For me, it all depends on if you have an affinity for the music of the subjects, plus it needs a strong book. And then there’s the current show from Village Theatre, “We Ain’t Ever Gonna Break Up: The Hymon and Parfunkel Musical”, a show bold enough to create a made-up songwriting duo and spend their time poking fun at the genre they attempt to fit into, the bio-musical. But, without recognizable songs to hook you, we’re left with the strength of the book. Luckily the book is hilarious, assuming you’re a fan of the well-crafted groaner. Which I am.
