She Loves Me
Musical
Book by Joe Masteroff
Lyrics by Sheldon Harnick
Music by Jerry Bock
Based on Parfumerie by Miklos Laszlo
This award-winning musical is certainly one of the most charming ever written. Its original stint on Broadway was too short, but it left behind a much beloved original cast recording. That cast featured Jack Cassidy and and continued to make Barbara Cook's star rise. It also gave us the delightful song 'Icecream.'
With a book by Cabaret's Joe Masteroff, and music and lyrics by the team that brought us Fiddler on the Roof and Fiorello!, She Loves Me is an enchanting love story. There have been multiple films based on the original story including The Shop Around The Corner, the Judy Garland musical In The Good Old Summertime and You've Got Mail.
Georg and Amalia are two coworkers who bicker constantly but anonymously write each other through a Lonely Hearts column, and ultimately fall in love. With 25 show-stopper songs, She Loves Me is, as Frank Rich of The New York Times said, "... a continuously melodic evening of sheer enchantment and complete escape" and is, as TheaterMania writes, "... impossible not to love."
