ST. LOUIS - eTradeWire -- New Jewish Theatre (NJT) will close its 2026 season with She Loves Me, the beloved romantic musical featuring music by Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick and a book by Joe Masteroff. Based on Parfumerie, a play by Hungarian Jewish playwright Miklós László, the musical is a heartwarming holiday treat filled with witty dialogue, memorable music and the timeless excitement of discovering true love.

Set in a 1930s European perfumery, She Loves Me follows shop clerks Amalia Balash and Georg Nowack, who rarely see eye to eye. Unbeknownst to them, both have answered the same lonely-hearts advertisement and begun exchanging heartfelt letters with anonymous admirers. As their correspondence blossoms into romance, the two must navigate workplace rivalries, unexpected revelations and a series of delightful twists before discovering whether the love they have found on paper can become reality.
