Directed by Sydney Morton | Music Direction by Tyler Driskill | Choreography by Sean McKnight
Step into the charming world of She Loves Me, a romantic gem that inspired the 1990s Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks film, You’ve Got Mail! Set in a 1930s European perfumery, this effervescent musical follows two feuding shop clerks unaware they’re each other’s anonymous pen pals. With a lush score by the Tony Award-winning team behind Fiddler on the Roof, this witty and heartfelt story celebrates love, mistaken identities, and second chances. Our unique collaboration with the University of Michigan’s world-class Musical Theatre program promises a vibrant blend of rising stars and seasoned professionals, making this production one not to miss.
