LOVE LETTERS by A.R. Guerney Jr. at Richmond Community Theatre
"Love Letters"
by A. R. Gurney
A unique and imaginative theatre piece comprised of letters exchanged over a lifetime between two people who grew up together, went their separate ways, but continued to share confidences. What is created is an evocative, touching, frequently funny but always telling pair of character studies in which what is implied is as revealing and meaningful as what is actually written down. Andrew Makepeace Ladd III and Melissa Gardner, both born to wealth and position, are childhood friends whose lifelong correspondence begins with birthday party thank-you notes and summer camp postcards. They continue to exchange letters through the boarding school and college years. While Andy is off at war Melissa marries. Andy becomes a successful attorney, gets involved in politics and, eventually, is elected to the U.S. Senate. Through their letters it is clear how much they really meant, and gave to, each other over the yearsphysically apart, perhaps, but spiritually as close as only true lovers can be.
