The story of a marriage is at the center of this intimate and nostalgic
work by Harvey Schmidt and Tom Jones, the authors of “The Fantasticks.”
The show begins with Michael and Agnes on their wedding day and traces their
life together over a period of 50 years, until the day they leave their house
to the next pair of newlyweds. In that time we watch
them go through their wedding night jitters, raise a family, negotiate mid-life
crises, quarrel, separate, reconcile and grow old together, all lovingly to the
strains of a tuneful, charming score which includes the standard "My Cup Runneth Over."
”I Do! I Do!” is as universal as marriage itself, and far easier to mount! In
addition to its minimal set and flexible orchestra size (from two pianos to
full orchestra), the show boasts the smallest cast ever for a Broadway musical:
two larger-than-life star roles, and no one else. “I Do! I Do!” delivers Broadway
quality and universal appeal with minimal production requirements.

At once amusing, astonishingly
touching and truly endearing" - New York Post
