Miami Stage Company presents, I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change, a sarcastic—but not satiric—comedy about dating, romance, marriage, lovers, husbands, wives and in-laws. The show originally opened in New York in 1996, but it now holds the record for Off-Broadway's longest-running musical. With original lyrics and book written by Joe DiPietro (Over the River and Through the Woods) and a musical score composed by Jimmy Roberts (A...My Name is Still Alice,) this production has opened and become a crowd favorite in more than 150 cities worldwide. And now it's in Miami. The show is directed and choreographed by local Damaris Lopez-Canales who has been performing professionally and directing for the past 10 years. Her cast of only four performers transform into more than 50 different characters throughout the two-act play.
I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change is filled with lots of observational humor about what the average person goes through in search of love. Although there is no plotline per se, the songs and sketches trace the evolution of male-female relationships, from caveman days in the prologue to the joys of single life and dating in Act One, and then the rather different aspects of married life, parenthood and even the death of a spouse in Act Two.
I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change is rated PG-13 due to some adult subject matter and language.
