Say "I Love You" in July!

May 12, 2011 - PRLog -- The musical begins in Eden as the primal first date is about to commmence. Throughout the show courtships progress into marriage, then children, then post children. "The Marriage Tango" is a hysterical number in which the husband and wife are trying to make time for sex, but children and other jobs get in the way. "Satisfaction Guaranteed" is an advertisement by a legal firm to have a lawyer present during sex so that erotic agreements can be kept. The lyrics by Joe Dipietro and music by Jimmy Roberts are snappy and the patter of dialog is fresh and comedic.

Everything you have ever secretly thought about dating, romance, marriage, lovers, husbands, wives and in-laws, but were afraid to admit! This off-Broadway musical hit takes on the truths and myths behind that contemporary conundrum known as "the relationship."

See it July 1 - 3 at People's Playhouse in San Pedro or July 7 - 24 at Fullerton Civic Light Opera.
