I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change!- Friday Oct. 27th 7:00pm

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?”
