You Must Meet My Wife – A Little Night Music (with Celina Reynes)

Putting It Together

Perhaps the funniest song in the entire score, You Must Meet My Wife shows how clueless Frederick is and how petty Desiree seems to be. Celina Reynes returns to discuss those matters and unpack the subtext of this song.
