As a concept musical, "Love Life" was a true trailblazer, inspiring musical theater favorites of the 1960s, '70s and beyond - from "Cabaret" and "Chicago" (originally subtitled "A Musical Vaudeville") to Sondheim's "Company" (told through a series of sketches). It is "one of Weill's best scores" (conductor Jim Holmes), a masterpiece of blending different musical styles, "a compendium of American musical idioms skillfully chosen to fit the dramatic material".
Kurt Weill and Alan Jay Lerner joined forces in 1947, both riding the wave of success ("Street Scene" for Weill, "Brigadoon" for Lerner) and looking for new projects. When "Love Life" premiered on Broadway in 1948, Weill described it as "a completely new form of theater". Stephen Sondheim described it as "a useful influence on my own work".
The musical tells the story of a married couple who, from 1791 to 1948, are always the same age and go through marital problems resulting from the different social norms of each age.
