ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE
It Had to Be You
By Renee Taylor and Joseph Bologna
Directed by Scott Ross
It Had to Be You is a charming screwball comedy with a little chaos, a lot of heart, and the perfect touch of holiday magic. Set on a snow-covered Christmas Eve in New York City, the story follows an eccentric, past-her-prime actress who unexpectedly takes a television commercial director hostage in a desperate attempt to save her career—and maybe her chance at love. What begins as a wildly unconventional standoff quickly turns into a hilarious and heartfelt evening full of witty banter, unexpected chemistry, and the reminder that sometimes life’s biggest surprises arrive when we least expect them. Funny, festive, and delightfully offbeat, It Had to Be You is a romantic comedy with just enough madness to keep things interesting.
