"Love Letters" at Mason City Community Theatre

Directed by Steve Musson
Written by A.R. Gurney

A.R. Gurney’s Love Letters is a tender, tragi-comic, and nuanced examination of the shared nostalgia, missed opportunities, and deep closeness of two lifelong, complicated friends.

THE STORY: Andrew Makepeace Ladd III and Melissa Gardner are childhood friends whose lifelong correspondence begins with birthday party thank-you notes and summer camp postcards. Both from
affluent, East Coast families -- the friends communicate with each other through angst-ridden boarding school experiences, European adventures, failed marriages, and the ups and downs of career. Over the course of their lives, Andy and Melissa’s relationship goes through many changes. Despite the painful differences which will ultimately tear them apart, they remain each other’s most trusted confidante, and are “true lovers” on paper, if not on the earth.

Cast: June 6, 7, 13, & 15: Marc Murray & Michelle Murray
June 8 & 14: George Mortimer, Crystal Meier
