SUMMARY:Gutenberg! The Musical! at Playhouse on Park
DESCRIPTION:A fast-paced and wildly inventive musical comedy takes the stage with Gutenberg! The Musical!\, a playful spoof centered on two aspiring playwrights pitching an over-the-top Broadway musical about the inventor of the printing press.

Written by Anthony King and Scott Brown\, the show blends sharp humor with heartfelt charm in a format that celebrates the absurdity of making art about making art. \nGutenberg! The Musical! runs from January 21 through February 8\, 2026\, at Playhouse on Park in West Hartford\, CT. Performances are offered throughout the week\, including evenings\, matinees\, and select morning performances\, with previews on January 21 and 22.
