She Loves Me (original) (raw)

In this scented case of mistaken identity and letter writing, two feuding perfume clerks have no idea that they are in love.

An intimate and touching show, featuring music by Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick (Fiddler on the Roof) and book by Joe Masteroff (Cabaret), _She Loves Me_was nominated for five Tony Awards in 1964. The 1993 Broadway revival won the Olivier Award for Best Musical Revival, the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Revival of a Musical and the 1994 Critics Circle Award for Best Musical, while the 2016 Broadway Revival snagged the Tony Award for Best Scenic Design (beating Hamilton!). Considered by many to be the most charming musical ever written, She Loves Me is a warm romantic comedy with an endearing innocence and a touch of old-world elegance. The Mikos Lazlos play Parfuemerie, on which it is based, has inspired many adaptations, including the beloved film You've Got Mail starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks.

Set in a 1930s European perfumery, we meet shop clerks, Amalia and Georg, who, more often than not, don't see eye to eye. After both respond to a "lonely hearts advertisement" in the newspaper, they now live for the love letters that they exchange, but the identity of their admirers remains unknown. Join Amalia and Georg to discover the identity of their true loves... and all the twists and turns along the way!

She Loves Me showcases a small but strong ensemble cast playing a range of memorable characters of all ages - and each with their moment to shine. As the New York Times wrote, "This musical is remarkably generous to all its performers: a half-dozen supporting characters are given show stoppers, too." An ideal Christmas or Valentine's Day show, this heart-warming story will be adored by your entire audience.

This archival piece gives us an in-depth look about the creation of this musical with lyricist Sheldon Harnick, composer Jerry Bock, and book writer Joe Masteroff.

:Keyboard Tek for She Loves Me

Ladies and Gentlemen:

After spending close to a half hour on your website I still cannot find a quote for the Keyboard Tek for She Loves Me. Wake Forest University will be renting the materials from you and need the Keyboard Tek as well for a performance in the spring of 2022. I cannot tell them the cost until I can find that on your website. Why this information is not included in the "Materials Provided" section of your website is not clear to me. Please let me know the cost of renting this for seven performances and rehearsals with the orchestra beginning a minimum of five weeks before opening night. Thank you for your help!

Best wishes,

David Hagy

Is the Piano/Conductor's Score handwritten or typeset?

Hi there,

I was just wondering if the PC score licensed with the show is handwritten or typeset. Also, whether or not the option full reference score is typeset or not.

Thanks so much!

Reed parts in She Loves Me?

Hi, I'll be Music Directing SLM next spring in Virginia. I'm trying to determine how prevalent the double-reeds are in the reed books. For example, the 2-reed version calls for: Bb CLARINET , BASS CLARINET , Eb CLARINET , ENGLISH HORN , FLUTE. The double-reed players in the area don't play all of the single-reed instruments, so I was thinking that depending on how much the English Horn plays in that book, it might be easier to get a single-reed to play the clarinets/flute and then change the Eng Horn to another reed. Any advice is appreciated! Thx - Scott

Help with Synth Programming for "She Loves Me"

Getting ready to start up a production of She Loves Me, and am a bit confused about the intent of the synth patches in the two keyboard books. Does anyone have experience with this show, and have suggestions on how to approach the zillions of distinct patches required by the two books? Thanks -- Ken
