She Loves Me – Menier Chocolate Factory – 25 November 2016 till March 4th 2017

A wonderful musical set in a Perfumery in Hungary. Meet Amalia and Georg, who work as clerks in Maraczek’s Parfumerie — and aren’t exactly the best of friends. However, they have something in common. They both rapturously write to romantic pen pals. Despite the anonymity of their secret admirers, they live for the love letters that they exchange and the day they will finally meet. This wonderful love story has been the basis for the films The Shop around the Corner and You’ve Got Mail. The musical version – written by the authors of Fiddler on the Roof, Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick– has delighted audiences since its 1963 Broadway premier and features a sparkling score that includes the now-classic songs Ice Cream and A Trip to the Library.

An amazing cast including Scarlet Strallen, Mark Umbers, Les Dennis, Katherine Kingsley, Dominic Tighe make this a wonderful, funny musical with great songs and fun for all the family.  One of comparatively few musicals with accordion in the orchestra which in this production is played by Romano Viazzani.
