Considered by many to be the “most charming musical ever written,” She Loves Me is a witty and romantic musical comedy from the creators of Fiddler on the Roof and Cabaret. She Loves Me is set in a 1930s European perfumery.  It is here we meet shop clerks Amalia and Georg, who rarely see eye to eye. After both respond to a “lonely hearts advertisement” in the newspaper, they now live for the love letters they exchange, but the identity of their admirers remains unknown. Discover with Amalia and Georg the identity of their true loves and all the twists and turns along the way!
