A musical comedy by Neil Simon, with songs by Marvin Hamlisch and Carole Bayer Sager, loosely based on the real-life romantic and professional partnership of its songwriting creators. The story follows Vernon Gersch, a fussy, controlled composer, and Sonia Walsk, a scattered, free-spirited lyricist, as they're paired up to collaborate on songs and gradually fall into an on-again, off-again romance despite their wildly mismatched personalities and lingering exes. Told through the device of alternate egos who sing the couple's private thoughts and insecurities aloud, the show blends witty book scenes with a pop-flavored score exploring the messy, funny reality of two artists trying to build both a creative partnership and a relationship. It's a warm, character-driven two-hander built on the charm of opposites-attract chemistry.
