Like You Like It was penned by Sammy Buck (book and lyrics) and Daniel S. Acquisto (music). The musical, according to press notes, is "set in 1985, and the brand new Arden Mall is hosting a high school dance. Bookworm babe Rosalind wants to go with varsity wrestler Orlando, but she's never had the guts to talk to him. Rosalind disguises herself as a frat dude named Corey and learns Orlando's true feelings for her. But things get tricky when 'Corey' complicates the lives of three other couples at Arden. Rosalind will do anything to get Orlando, even if it means showing up at the dance as both herself and Corey."
The creative team also includes choreographer Keith Andrews, set designer Carl Tallent, costume designer Hunter Kaczorowski and lighting designer Dan Jobbins. The production stage manager is Kayla Shriner-Cahn. Heather Siobhan Curran produces with associate producer Marissa Rosenblum.
