Drury Lane Theatrical Productions announces the upcoming production of the off-Broadway smash, I LOVE YOU, YOU’RE PERFECT, NOW CHANGE in June at Drury Lane Theatre on New Street.

Veteran stage director Danny Harvey makes his Drury Lane debut, while music director Donna Dunn-Albert returns after the triumphant run of Music Hall. They are joined by performers Sara Da Silva, Dave Osborne, Alanna Perkovich-Smith and Chris Stolz to bring this crowd-pleasing show to life.

Opening night is Friday, June 3rd and shows continue through Sunday, June 26th. 

I LOVE YOU, YOU’RE PERFECT, NOW CHANGE is the longest running off-Broadway revue in history. This celebration of the mating game takes on the truths and myths behind the contemporary conundrum known as “the relationship.” 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, and to those who have dared to ask, “Say, what are you doing Saturday night?”

Invite your favourite person to join you in the comfortable cabaret setting at The Loft at Drury Lane on New Street. Enjoy a beverage from our licensed bar while watching the show and celebrate your own “perfect” relationships! Tickets are on sale at www.DruryLane.ca and by calling our Box Office at 905-637-3979.

Enjoy a fun-filled day with all things STRAWBERRY on Saturday, June 18, 2022, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
