I DO! I DO!

A Musical About Marriage

Book and Lyrics by Tom Jones Music by Harvey Schmidt

Originally produced on Broadway by David Merrick

Originally directed by Gower Champion

This touching story of two soulmates navigating the perils of life is set to a tuneful, charming score, including “My Cup Runneth Over” and the title song. The story spans 50 years as it focuses on the ups and downs experienced by Agnes and Michael throughout their marriage.

Based on Jan de Hartog’s play The Fourposter, the musical features a book by Tom Jones, with music by Harvey Schmidt and lyrics by Tom Jones. Along with the record-breaking The Fantasticks and 110 in the Shade, I Do! I Do! is one of the three most successful Schmidt and Jones collaborations.

The original Broadway production starred Mary Martin and Robert Preston, opened at the 46th Street Theatre in December 1966, and closed after 560 performances in June 1968. It received 7 Tony Award Nominations, and Preston won for Best Leading Actor in a Musical. Singer Ed Ames had a major hit with his recording of the song “My Cup Runneth Over.” Covered by dozens of artists, it is the most well-known song in the show, though several artists covered “What is a Woman?” and the title song as well.
