It is the rare musical theatre aficionado who doesn’t have a soft spot in his heart for this intimate show, considered by many the most charming musical ever written. Georg and Amalia are two feuding clerks in a European parfumerie during the 1930s who secretly find solace in their anonymous romantic pen pals, little knowing their respective correspondents are none other than each other. Funny, intelligent, honest and sentimental, “She Loves Me” is a warm romantic comedy with an endearing innocence and a touch of old world elegance and nostalgia, yet as universal and relevant as ever in this age of internet romances. “She Loves Me” showcases a small but strong ensemble cast playing a range of vivid, memorable characters of all ages. Dance is mostly eschewed in favor of clever character-driven songs full of melody and personality. An ideal Christmas or Valentine’s Day show, this heart-warming work by Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick (the songwriting team of “Fiddler On The Roof”) and Joe Masteroff (the bookwriter of “Cabaret) is a pleasure whatever the occasion.
