October 2023 - I LOVE YOU...

Updated: Oct 21



Tokyo International Players (TIP) is proud to present:

I LOVE YOU, YOU'RE PERFECT, NOW CHANGE

with book and lyrics by Joe DiPietro, music by Jimmy Roberts, orchestrations by Doug Katsaros, and directed by Jon Reimer.


This celebration of the mating game takes on the truths and myths behind that contemporary conundrum known as “the relationship.” Through sketches and songs, Act I explores the journey from dating and waiting to love and marriage, while Act II reveals the agonies and triumphs of in-laws and newborns, trips in the family car and pick-up techniques of the geriatric set. This hilarious revue pays tribute to those who have loved and lost, to those who have fallen on their face at the portal of romance, to those who have dared to ask, “Say, what are you doing Saturday night?”


Please note that this show contains mature content and themes of sexuality and is most appropriate for guests age 13 and up. Infants and children who are unable to occupy a seat by themselves are not permitted in the venue.


Originally produced in New York by James Hammerstein, Bernie Kukoff, and Jonathan Pollard. Original direction by Joel Bishoff. Originally produced by the American Stage Company; James N. Vagias, Executive Director. Presented by permission of Toho Music Corporation on behalf of Concord Theatricals, New York City. www.concordtheatricals.com

いわゆる「恋愛関係」は、現代における難解な問題である。恋の駆け引きをテーマにした当作品は、こうした恋愛関係におけるややこしい真実と錯覚を描き出す。芝居と歌を通じて、第1幕ではデートや相手の反応を待つ時のもどかしさ、恋愛、結婚に至るまでの道のりを探り、第2幕では義理の両親や子どもの誕生、ファミリーカーでの旅行、老人のナンパ・テクニックなど、恋愛関係における苦悩と克服を明らかにする。この明るいミュージカルは、恋した人、失恋した人、恋愛の始まりで躊躇した人、「土曜の夜は何してるの?」と勇気を出して尋ねた人への賛歌である。
