For a show that delves into the dangers of infidelity, the biggest gamble taken by The New Group’s production of Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice is its faithfulness to its source material, the 1969 screenplay by Paul Mazursky and Larry Tucker.
The New Group continues its 2019-2020 Off-Broadway season with the world premiere musical Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, featuring a book by Jonathan Marc Sherman, with music and lyrics by Duncan Sheik, directed by Scott Elliott
Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice is based on the Columbia Pictures motion picture, written by Mazursky and Larry Tucker and directed by Paul Mazursky.

A bittersweet comic take on the sexual revolution in which the suavely conventional lives of two successful young couples, all friends, are both stirred and shaken when they open their minds to the changing attitudes around them. Duncan Sheik and Jonathan Marc Sherman evoke both the confusions of the time, and the hard timeless lessons of marriage and emotional commitment, inspired by the brilliant and irreverent Oscar-nominated film.
