Summary
The Internet Dating Musical! (A Cyber Love Story): This funny and charming two-person "Musical.com/edy" is a contemporary love story based around the modern world of internet dating. A man and a woman search for that "special someone" in cyberspace and find that romance is only a mouse click away, but discover more than they ever anticipated. Two lonely singles at home on their laptop computers have signed up with an internet dating site called "eLove.com." We hear their innermost thoughts about love and relationships as they correspond in a cyber chat room searching for their perfect soulmate. When one of them shares a unique personal moment that's too coincidental, they discover they've been "perfectly matched" ...with their former lovers! The newly reunited couple rediscover their love as they start to clear the air of misunderstandings through the safe distance of cyberspace, finding true love where they least expected it...where they last left it!

This delightful and touching musical comedy is easy to produce needing only one set and a cast of two of any age. Productions can be preformed with or without an intermission. Music background tracks are included. A modern I Do, I Do meets I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change. A delightful musical romp!
