About the Musical: "Épouse-la" (translated as "Marry Her") is a comic operetta in three acts with lyrics by the renowned playwright Pierre Veber and music by Henri Hirchmann, a prolific composer of French theater works. Debuting at the Théâtre Fémina in Paris in 1923, the operetta tells a humorous and romantic story, typical of the light theater of the era, filled with clever misunderstandings, lively character interactions, and memorable melodies. Its success reflected the energetic spirit and optimism of postwar Paris. R. Laroche is credited as the illustrator of several vibrant French theatrical posters from the early 20th century, especially during the Art Deco era. While not as widely recognized as masters like Jules Chéret or Alphonse Mucha, Laroche still played a significant role in shaping the visual culture of Parisian stage life, capturing the energy and exuberance of contemporary musical comedies, operettas, and revues.
