Shalick Smith ’20, left, stars as Keller in “She Loves Me,” considered by many to be the most charming musical ever written.<\/p><\/div>\n
An intimate and touching show, \u201cShe Loves Me\u201d features music by Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick (\u201cFiddler on the Roof\u201d) and book by Joe Masteroff (\u201cCabaret\u201d). The beloved musical was nominated for five Tony Awards in 1964. The 1993 Broadway revival won the Olivier Award for Best Musical Revival and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Revival of a Musical. It won the 1994 Critics Circle Award for Best Musical.<\/p>\n
Considered by many to be the most charming musical ever written, \u201cShe Loves Me\u201d is a warm romantic comedy with an endearing innocence and a touch of old-world elegance. The story follows Georg and Amalia, two perfumery clerks who aren\u2019t the best of friends. Constantly bumping heads while on the job, the sparring coworkers can\u2019t seem to find common ground. But little do they know, the anonymous romantic pen pals they have both been falling for happen to be each other. Will love continue to blossom once their identities are finally revealed?<\/p>\n
Furman faculty member and collaborative pianist Dewitt Tipton directs music for the performance.<\/p>\n
