On a chilly Tuesday evening in the Forum building, sounds of people humming and memorizing lines echo through the empty rooms.

They are the sounds of No Refunds Theatre's (NRT) dress rehearsal for this weekend's performance, I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change.

Off-Broadway's longest running musical by Joe DiPietro and Jimmy Roberts will be performed tonight and tomorrow night in the Forum.

Director Hailey Apter (senior-advertising), in her directorial debut, said the musical shows different stages of relationships from first dates to childbirth to divorce. The show is divided into isolated incidents and shows a variety of problems, including the infamous wedding jitters and parents' frustration over a son's breakup.

"I've seen [the musical] and liked it and wanted to bring it to the rest of the Penn State community," she said.

Assistant director Diane Kadushin (junior-public relations) said the musical features four actors who play a different role in every scene.

Cast member Michelle Rochkind (junior-broadcast journalism) said the small number of cast members gives the performance a more close-knit feel.

"You get to know everyone, and it's not cliquey. It's a true ensemble," she said.

The cast and crew said NRT musicals aren't very common.

NRT newcomer Katie Stratico (freshman-architecture) said she was happy to find a musical being put on by NRT, and she likes the laid-back atmosphere of productions.

The cast and crew said the musical can be related in everyday life.

"It's a show where everyone thinks it but nobody says it," Matt Schmidt said. (senior-musical theatre) "It's the kind of show lots of people can relate to."

Cast member Justin Allen Pifer (junior-musical theatre) agreed that the show is a great experience.

"It's a really fun show, it doesn't get boring," Pifer said.

Both directors said they hope people will leave the performance having a good time. "The play makes you realize that dating isn't so bad, and that married life is worth the trials and tribulations," Kadushin said.
