You Must Remember This is an homage to the classic film Casablanca on the 75th anniversary of the film’s release in America.

It is the height of World War II.  Frank Chandler is an American GI who has been separated from the army on a “blue discharge.” Along with his musician friend and sometime lover Dan Jackson, he finds himself in Marrakesh (only a short distance away from Casablanca), an international city where every kind of pleasure is easily available.  

But Marrakesh is also a city of danger.  The Nazis are establishing themselves there, and their ominous presence means life is fraught with peril.

Then Lilli, a beautiful, mysterious woman from Frank’s past, shows up unexpectedly, and he finds himself confronted with the hardest choice of his life.  Lilli’s presence stirs emotions he thought he had buried.  Yet there is still the city—and its men—and the thousand pleasures it offers…

Should Frank go with Lilli and try to make a “normal” life with her?   Or should he follow what he increasingly believes to be his true nature?  That is the dramatic conflict at the heart of You Must Remember This.
