Amour
by Jeremy Sams, Michel Legrand, Didier van Cauwelaert, Marcel Aymé

Set in Paris shortly after World War II, Amour concerns the meek and unassuming Dusoleil, a beleaguered clerk who secretly pines for the lovely but unhappily married Isabelle.

When Dusoleil inexplicably develops the ability to walk through walls, he becomes a Parisian Robin Hood, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor.

Word of the infamous thief spreads, intriguing Isabelle in particular, and shy Dusoleil faces a moral dilemma – will he continue his righteous campaign, or come clean and rescue Isabelle from her unhappiness?

Amour was adapted from the 1943 short story Le Passe-Muraille by Marcel Aymé.

The story is memorialized by a statue in Montmartre in Paris.

The show is through-composed and contains no dialogue between musical numbers.
