SHE LOVES ME You’ll find yourself singing along with the actors for iconic songs like “Vanilla Ice Cream,” “Will He Like Me?,” and, of course, the title number, when The Island Players present She Loves Me. This charming romantic musical comedy, written by the creative team who produced Fiddler on the Roof is a retelling of the story brought
to life in the 1940 film The Shop Around the Corner, which Hollywood later remade as You’ve Got Mail with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. Featuring a cast of talented local actors directed by Jeff Dempsey and Jackie Santoro, performances will take place October 5-7,
11-14, and 18-21 at the St. Simons Island Casino Theatre. Showtime is at 7:30 Thursday through Saturday, and at 3:00 p.m. for Sunday matinees. Purchase your tickets for the show in advance at theislandplayers.com. Season tickets that include all four shows of 2018-2019 are also available.
