What makes She Loves Me Charles Troy’s favorite? Like many other musical theatre aficionados, he considers the 1963 show a near-perfect creation. It highlights the seamless blend of dialogue and song, the balance of comedy and operetta traditions, perfectly combines head and heart, and is irresistibly charming. While this show may be new to you, you will recognize the source as The Shop Around the Corner. It features music by Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick before they collaborated on Fiddler on the Roof.
