Well, well, well, well, well, well, well.  That is just one of the fabulous lyrics found in our opening show SHE LOVES ME, which opened on Friday, October 2nd. OK, maybe its not the most creative of lyrics, but maybe you just need some perspective.  OK, enough inside jokes. If you’ve seen SHE LOVES ME, you know what I’m talking about, but if you haven’t you are missing out on a charming romantic musical. But not to fret, we still run two more weekends, Friday and Saturday at 8pm, and Sunday at 2pm.

It’s hard to believe that almost exactly a year ago today, we were opening A FEW GOOD MEN. I was putting on my white uniform whilst trying to handle the truth. And here we are today, celebrating our one-year anniversary with a show that is a complete 180. I guess that’s what makes working here so thrilling: it’s always something a little different.

The response to SHE LOVES ME has been overwhelmingly positive. From the glowing review in the Kalamazoo Gazette: which you can read HERE, to season ticket holders leaving the theatre with bright smiles across their faces.  And a quick shout out to the high school students from both Portage Central and Portage Northern who took advantage of our $10 student rush tickets for all performances, and thoroughly enjoyed this endearing tale of love.  These students were a great audience and we couldn’t be happier to have such a pleasant relationship with these two schools.  Gee, I wonder why.

But all students from the area: college, high school, middle school, et al.  can take advantage of our $10 student rush pricing at ALL performances (subject to availability).  Considering the talents we’ve drawn from at Farmers Alley between high schools and colleges and universities, we would love to have Farmers Alley be an entertainment venue for theatre lovers of ALL AGES.

So from ages 8 to 88 (or beyond!), make a date with SHE LOVES ME at Farmers Alley Theatre these next two weekends!  You dont need to bring a copy of Anna Karenina with a rose as a bookmark!  Don’t get that reference?  Then come see the show!
