She Loves Me || December 1 - 20, 2023

Music by Jerry Bock | Lyrics by Sheldon Harnick | Book by Joe Masteroff

Considered by many to be the most charming musical ever written, She Loves Me is a warm romantic comedy with an endearing innocence and a touch of old-world elegance. Set in 1930s Europe, two feuding perfume store clerks begin to unknowingly exchange letters after responding to a "lonely hearts advertisement" in the newspaper and have no idea they are falling in love—with each other! A perfect holiday story, join us for all the twists and turns as these lovers discover the truth in this intimate and touching show.
