I've seen the musical production and it was awesome! It is an ingeneious account of the journey from the dating game to marriage. The lyrics are hilarious and the music is great. The book itself might not seem very appealing. Go see the musical or buy the CD, and then you'll want to read the book and the lyrics again and again.

If you are looking for a script for regional theatre that is an audience-pleaser, look no further. I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change romps happily through the modern mating game, from dating to marriage, to children, and all that comes after. It's a collection of funny scenes, punctuated with sometimes hilarious songs, so actors get to jump from one wildly different character to another.

I'm currently in a production of this show at a regional theatre in a very conservative town, and the crowds seem to love it here. The script is a solid PG13 (there is a good bit of profanity), and the authors acknowledge that different theatres may need to make different edits to preserve the good will of subscribers.

The writing is witty, so as long as the performers can have fun with it, the audience will do the rest.

Amazon provides a very good service. I got this product about one week after I sent my order. It's a very fast delivery and the book is also in good condition. Originally I thought this is the text of the play but actually it's a song book with score. That's OK for me.

The production at Theatre at Old Town (San Diego) was fun, funny, fabulous, worth every cent, charming, and when it comes back (especially with the cast I saw!) I will definitely see it again. After all . . . 8 times was simply not enough!!

Don't miss this ... and listening to the CD brings it all back ... and allows me to sing-a-long!!

Gentle as you go ...

I was thrilled to find selections from the show at Amazon. It's always helpful when you can have the real book (versus a 'fake' book) from a show for an audition reference. Several of my auditioners did not know the show--using this book brought them closer to an understanding of the format and style.
