The show will play a limited engagement on Broadway starting in the spring of 2016.

The full cast, creative team and dates will be announced shortly.

She Loves Me follows Georg and Amalia -- "two parfumerie clerks who aren't quite the best of friends."

"Constantly bumping heads while on the job, the sparring co-workers can't seem to find common ground," a synopsis said. "But little do they know, the anonymous romantic pen pals they have both been falling for happen to be each other! Will love continue to blossom once their identities are finally revealed?"
