Set in Paris in 1929 and filled with delightful, witty, Cole Porter songs, "You Never Know" at Meadow Brook Theatre takes place one summer evening in Baron Rommer's elegant penthouse suite at the Hotel Ritz. The baron and his butler switch identities so that the butler can pursue a woman he believes is a lady of a much higher class. This is a door slamming farce with wonderful songs such as "Let's Misbehave" and "At Long Last Love."
