“Love is just another diagnosis
Like chickenpox, swine flu, streptococcus,
Walking pneumonia, mumps, herpes, hepatitis,
Syphilis, tetanus, human papillomavirus.”

Extraordinary young Parisian woman Amélie embarks on a secret mission to make the people around her happy – everyone, except herself.

Brought to the stage by our Actor Musicianship cohort, Amélie is a heartwarming, surprising, and playful story told through beautiful music.
