The first production is called Love Letters and will begin on Friday January 11, 2013. Here is a brief synopsis of the show:
The handwritten note leaves an indelible mark forever, not only on the ink-stained paper, but also in the heart of its reader.
American playwright A.R. Gurney knew this when he created his Pulitzer Prize nominated play Love Letters.
Love Letters, considered one of Gurney´s best and a classic of the American stage, tells the story of two people who grew up in the 1930s and whose lives become intimately entwined by the prolificacy of their pens.
The second production will begin on January 18, 2013. Here is a brief synopsis of the show:
HATE MAIL is described by the authors as “an epistolary play something like Love Letters, with two actors reading letters and other correspondence, but it's a little wilder and more hysterically funny. It tells the story of Preston, a spoiled rich kid who meets his match in Dahlia, an angst-filled artist. Their worlds collide when Preston sends a complaint letter that gets Dahlia fired from her job, and then there's no turning back. The play stays with their increasingly crazed correspondence as they move from hate to love, and then right back again”.
These production start a real life engaged couple Valerie Rigsbee and Gary DuBreuil.
The 3 Concert performances will be on January 12, 2013, February 17, 2013, February 18, 2013 and March 23, 2013.
