Americana Theatre Company Presents Parfumerie

Romantic holiday comedy inspired several movies and a musical

 Americana Theatre Company (ATC), Plymouth’s professional theatre company, presents Parfumerie, the endearing play adapted by

E. P. Dowdall from the Hungarian play Illatszertar by Miklos Laszlo from December 11 through 15, 7 pm at Plymouth Center for the Arts, 11 North Street, Plymouth.  The production is sponsored in part by The Foundation for Creative Achievement.  Pre-show receptions welcome all guests to enjoy the holiday spirit beginning at 6:30 pm.

The romantic comic inspiration for several major motion pictures and a musical, Parfumerie follows the tangled tale shop employee George Horvath, set in 20^th century Budapest. Just days before Christmas, George's boss fires him after mistakenly suspecting him to be the lover of his unfaithful wife. Meanwhile, George's own love life goes awry when he discovers that the stranger he has fallen in love with through a secret correspondence is none other than Amalia Balash, a co-worker with whom he constantly feuds. For the employees of the Parfumerie, only the truth can lead to a happy resolution in this old-fashioned, romantic Christmas tale, poised to make love your favorite purchase this season.

Parfumerie’s vivid  history begins when it was in Hungarian in 1937 as Miklós László’s play, Illatszertar (Perfume Shop) was a huge hit in Budapest when it caught the eye of Ernst Lubitsch, famed movie director. Lubitsch adapted the play into the movie The Shop Around the Corner in 1940, starring James Stewart, Margaret Sullivan and Frank Morgan (the wizard of The Wizard of Oz). It later became a vehicle for Judy Garland and Van Johnson in In the Good Old Summertime.   In 1963, the play was transformed into the musical She Loves Me, recently in a hit revival on Broadway. In 1998 Nora Ephron utilized Illatszertar as the inspiration for the widely acclaimed film You’ve Got Mail, starring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, delivering the concept into the digital age and the New York book business.

Parfumerie’s passionate cast includes Gary S. Martinez as shop owner “Mr. Hammerschmidt”, Jesse Sullivan as “George Horvath”, Jennifer Martin as “Amalia Balash”, David Friday as “Mr. Sipos”, Erin Friday as “Illona Pierce”, and Gavin Killea as “Steven Kadar”.
