A.R. Gurney's LOVE LETTERS presented as a benefit for North Star
Have you ever loved someone who touched every part of your life? Have you ever loved someone across time and distance? Share in the story of Melissa and Andrew as they grow together in life and love through the power of the pen. A. R. Gurney's beautifully haunting and touchingly funny play, LOVE LETTERS. LOVE LETTERS tells the story of a 50-year correspondence between shy, flighty Melissa Garner and solid, ambitious Andrew Makepeace Ladd III. Told through the reading of their letters, LOVE LETTERS was a finalist for the 1988 Pulitzer Prize and has been performed world wide in countless languages.
New Century Theatre's Cate Damon and Sam Rush present this moving piece as a benefit for North Star: Self-Directed Learning for Teens. North Star is a center for community-based education in Hadley, Massachusetts. Founded in 1996 by two middle school teachers, North Star's mission is to make self-directed learning an inspiring and viable option for any interested teen in the Pioneer Valley. Please visit www.northstarteens.org to learn more about North Star.
So turn off your cell phone, put down the laptop and return to a time when pen and paper were used to try to express the inexpressible and capture the elusive moments of love, pain, heartache and warmth that make-up the lifetimes of two extraordinarily ordinary people.
