I and You: The Musical

Book by Lauren Gunderson
Music and Lyrics by Ari Afsar
Directed by Sarah Rasmussen
A co-production with Olney Theatre Center

September 13 - October 12, 2025

A McCarter World Premiere, thrillingly adapted from Lauren Gunderson’s acclaimed and award-winning worldwide hit, with an electrifying new score by Ari Afsar. See it here first.  

17-year-olds Caroline—stuck at home with an illness—and Anthony—an earnest overachiever toting Walt Whitman and waffle fries—are classmates pulling an unexpected all-nighter. What starts as a reluctant assignment soon sets both their worlds spinning into a soul-searching exploration of fate, friendship, and the fragile wonder of being alive.

Featuring a soaring musical score, I And You is a funny, uplifting, feel-all-the-things story that reminds us we all contain multitudes. 

Commissioned by McCarter Theatre Center with support from the BOLD Foundation

Sharp, funny, and deeply engaging, I And You taps into a buoyant spirit.
