Reviews

  • The New York Times

    "But when embodied by a cast as expertly attuned as this one, which also includes a winning Zachary Levi and a scrumptious Jane Krakowski, it has a lingering and deeply satisfying sweetness"

  • The New York Times

    "It succeeds in making you feel personally engaged by every one of its seven principal characters, who all work at the parfumerie owned by Mr. Maraczek (Byron Jennings), while convincing you that the most natural way to get to know people is through the medium of song."

  • The Guardian

    "This joy of this musical, about two warring shop workers unwittingly conducting an epistolary romance, is how the songs deepen and contradict the conversation."
