LYRICS
TODAY THE AIR IN SEOUL
IS VERY CLEAR AND WARM.
TODAY THE SMILES TOO
ARE WARMER THAN THE NORM.
THOUGH THE CHANGE IS NOT PROFOUND,
THERE’S A SPECIALNESS GOING AROUND -
LET’S ENJOY THE DAY!
WATCHING FROM THE WINDOW AS THE MORNING CROWDS APPEAR
PICTURING THE PLACES THEY ARE GOING
SOON THE RUSH IS OVER AND THE SIDEWALK STARTS TO CLEAR
THEN I START MY DAY IN HERE!
THE WORLD WITHIN MY ROOM -
THE PERFECT PLACE TO EXPLORE FROM.
I NEVER NEED MORE FROM
THE WORLD WITHIN MY ROOM.
I CHOOSE A BOOK AND I READ IT.
A PLACE TO RECHARGE WHEN I NEED IT -
AND IT’S ALL WITHIN MY ROOM!
ABOUT
A new musical reminding us that love is never obsolete.
Emmy® and Golden Globe Award® winner Darren Criss (Little Shop of Horrors) returns to Broadway alongside Helen J Shen in the new romantic musical comedy MAYBE HAPPY ENDING.
Inside a one-room apartment on the outskirts 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 Helperbot 3, a robot that has long been retired and considered obsolete? When his fellow Helperbot 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?
Winner of the Richard Rodgers Award, MAYBE HAPPY ENDING is the offbeat and captivating story of two outcasts near the end of their warranty who discover that even robots can be swept off their feet. Helmed by visionary director and Tony Award® winner Michael Arden (Parade, Once on This Island), with a dazzling scenic design by Dane Laffrey (A Christmas Carol) and book, music, and lyrics by the internationally acclaimed duo Will Aronson and Hue Park, MAYBE HAPPY ENDING is a fresh, original musical about the small things that make any life worth living.

this is one of the best shows i have ever seen! the music is incredible, the sets are gorgeous, the actors were amazing, and i don’t think i’ve ever been in an audience as locked into the show as this one was. we were all sobbing by the end of it lol. i’m completely obsessed with it now and these preview excerpts are lifesavers, thank you for tiding us all over until the cast album comes out 💜
Thanks for all the love firefly! 💜🩵🤖🪴
Lyrics:
Today the air in Seoul is very clear and warm
Today the smiles too are warmer than the norm
Though the change is not profound, there’s a specialness going around
Let’s enjoy the day!
Watching from the window as the morning crowds appear
Picturing the places they are going soon the rush is over and the sidewalk starts to clear, then I start my day!
In here!
The world within my room the perfect place to explore from I never need more from the world within my room I choose a book and I read it
A place to recharge when I need it
And it's all within my room!
I think he’s saying Seoul
When I realized this is the perfect length for an audition cut-
Coming back after having seen the show a month ago: Being very much an introvert, and Filipino American this show, and the character of Oliver specifically means so much. I’d do anything to see it again.
I can't wait for the cast album to come out next year! :D
This was a fantastic show! I want to go back to New York and see it again!
I love robot love . ❤
Beautiful show
Best show on broadway since hadestown - I still can’t decide if it’s better, it’s that good.
Yes! Equally good in different ways. Not better, not worse. Hadestown is more of a big musical, this is smaller and equally good. Loved them both. These 2 and Hamilton are the best of Broadway as far as I'm concerned.
Hadestown I had to sit with a couple days before I realized how much I loved it. Maybe Happy Ending won me over in the first few minutes and I haven't
been able to stop thinking about it since I saw it on Sunday. I know it's a long shot but I hope like Hadestown it eventually gets a pro-shot, preferably with this cast... The production is just too beautiful not to be preserved!
An introvert’s dream.
Please release an official cast album ASAP 🙏🏽

Love it love it love it. I wish Where You Belong would play on youtube - all I could find was the iteration from 8 years ago and not this one which I thought was so lovely. ua-cam.com/video/ktd8y7NcjZw/v-deo.html
