Art imitates Life imitates Art. In Sarah Ruhl’s ode to romance in the theatre, fictional identities bleed into real life, as She and He are reunited both on and off the page. This romantic comedy blends over-the-top farce with poignant human experiences that will bring laughter, fantasy and heart to anyone who has ever been in love…or in a play.
