Youre A Good Man, Charlie Brown: A Peanuts Musical [Vhs]

Youre a Good Man, Charlie Brown: A Peanuts Musical [VHS] Clark Gesners musicalization of Charles Schulzs "Peanuts" comic strips was a hit off-Broadway in 1967 and on Broadway in 1999. This video presents 49 minutes of the show, combining the familiar look of "Peanuts" animated television specials with Gesners charming skits and songs, including the title tune, Snoopys ode to eating "Suppertime," the Beethoven adaptation "Schroeder," the baseball yarn "T-E-A-M," and the sweet-as-a-warm-puppy anthem "Happiness." It should be noted that Gesners clever score, while inspired by the actual strips, is aimed at a slightly older viewing audience than are most "Peanuts" videos, and that these young voices occasionally strain to keep up with its demands. Still, its solid entertainment, and for anyone who performed the show in school and wishes there were a stage performance recorded on video, this is the next best thing. --David Horiuchi From the Back Cover Heres to you, Chuck! An animated salute to that wishy-washy (but endearingly honest) fella. Based in part on the popular stage play.
