Watch the promo for the event below:

"She Loves Me" was the first Broadway musical to stream live during a performance at Roundabout Theatre Company's Studio 54, as part of Roundabout's 50th Anniversary Season. In the musical, Tony Award-winner Laura Benanti and Tony Award-nominee Zachary Levi star as Amalia and Georg, two parfumerie clerks who aren't quite the best of friends. Constantly bumping heads while on the job, the sparring coworkers can't seem to find common ground. But little do they know, the anonymous romantic pen pals they have both been falling for happen to be each other. Will love continue to blossom once their identities are finally revealed?

This performance of "She Loves Me" was produced and captured by BroadwayHD in June, in association with Ellen M. Krass Productions, Inc. and Thirteen Productions LLC. It was directed for the screen by David Horn. The acclaimed Broadway production was directed by Tony Award-nominee Scott Ellis. In addition to Benanti and Levi, "She Loves Me" also starred Tony Award-winner Jane Krakowski and Tony Award-nominee Gavin Creel, alongside Byron Jennings, Tom McGowan, Peter Bartlett and Nicholas Barasch.

"We are proud to share this production with audiences nationwide, after making Broadway history with the live stream of 'She Loves Me,' the show that launched Roundabout's Musical Theatre Program in 1993. As a nonprofit institution, this is an incredible opportunity for us to share Scott Ellis's new Broadway production beyond our subscribers, donors and students from our limited run at Studio 54," said Todd Haimes, Roundabout Theatre Company's Artistic Director / CEO.

"The best part about seeing theatre performances in cinemas is the ability to watch with an audience of fans and experience the energy of the community in the auditorium. The 2016 multi-Tony Award-nominated 'She Loves Me' is the perfect title to debut this big screen experience for Broadway lovers nationwide," said Fathom Events Vice President of Programming Kymberli Frueh. "Now anyone can see amazing Broadway talent in their local movie theater."

"We are thrilled to partner with Fathom Events to bring 'She Loves Me' to audiences nationwide," said BroadwayHD co-founders Stewart F. Lane and Bonnie Comley. "Once again, we are working to preserve and extend the reach of Live Theatre. Many fans couldn't make it to NYC before this exhilarating Broadway production shut its doors. We captured 'She Loves Me' in June so we could share it with theatre lovers everywhere. This partnership allows us to take it one step further and bring the Broadway stage to cinemas in hometowns across the country."
