"One of the best musicals in years! Wildly inventive and profoundly moving, thanks to a remarkable pair of lead performances, a lush score and awe-inspiring direction by Tony Award winner Michael Arden."

About Maybe Happy Ending

Inside a one-room apartment in the heart of Seoul, Oliver lives a happily quiet life listening to jazz records and caring for his favorite plant. But what else is there to do when you’re a Helper-Bot 3, a robot that has long been retired and considered obsolete? When his fellow Helper-Bot neighbor Claire asks to borrow his charger, what starts as an awkward encounter leads to a unique friendship, a surprising adventure, and maybe even...love?
