A modern-day telling of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, I LOVE YOU BECAUSE is a sweet and funny romantic comedy about contemporary dating in New York City. The Wall Street Journal called it "everything an off-Broadway musical should be ... a charming piece of work that will send you home smiling," and The New York Times concurred, praising it as "terrific, refreshing fun – filled with wit and zest." And the acclaimed score by the new writing team of Ryan Cunningham & Joshua Salzman was hailed as "impressive, distinctive, tuneful and smart." This new musical comedy explores the 'rules' and nuances of dating and learning how to love someone, not in spite of their differences, but because of them.
