The story is set in 1960 during a weekend at the Catskills holiday resort, and it describes the two friends Louis and Marge’s quest for fun, trouble and romance. The musical contains 18 classic songs by Neil Sedaka, among these are ”Where The Boys Are”, ”Sweet Sixteen”, ”Calender Girl” and of course the title song ”Breaking Up Is Hard To Do”. ”A cheerfully entertaining and nostalgic piece of musical theatre.” – Miami Times / ”A knockout […] A smart tongue-in-cheek bouncy little pocket musical […] A foot-tapping workout that thoroughly pleased a packed house.” – Daily Gazette / ”Sedaka’s tunes are delightfully melodic and feel right at home on the theatrical stage.” – Times Union
