The American Repertory Theater (A.R.T.) is pleased to welcome the return, by popular demand, of the brilliant artist Aurélia Thierrée in Aurélia's Oratorio, written and directed by Victoria Thierrée Chaplin.

I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change, the laugh-inducing, award-winning musical comedy about love in the suburbs, is often described as 'Seinfeld set to music'. It's a hilarious look at love and relationships that is as touching and insightful as it is humorous. Four actors play over forty roles scaling the dizzying spectrum of male/female relationships. The trials and tribulations of being single, dating, marriage, loss, and heartbreak - and everything in the relationship process that you have ever secretly thought about, but were afraid to admit - are cleverly explored.
