The Mississippi University for Women Department of Music will present the Broadway musical “She Loves Me” April 24 and April 25 at 7:30 p.m. in Kossen Auditorium, located in Poindexter Hall.

“This performance marks our first fully-staged production as a music department,” said Susan Hurley, professor of voice and stage director. “We’re excited to offer such a fine theatrical work to the community and proud to showcase the students who have spent the semester preparing for these performances.”

“She Loves Me,” a 1963 musical by Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick, is based on a play by Miklós László. The story follows Amalia and George, co-workers who clash at work while unknowingly falling in love as anonymous pen pals.

Seating is limited and attendees are encouraged to arrive early.

Admission is free, and tickets will be available at the door on a first-come, first-served basis.

“She Loves Me” is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI.

This production is licensed by Music Theatre International.
