Community Theatre at Woodbury, Inc. opens its 6th season with “Love Letters”, directed by Rich Reimold. Rich is co-founder with Maureen Denver of CTAW and is currently an Emeritus member of the Board. He has acted in and directed "Love Letters" three times. He appreciates A. R. Gurney's empathy as an observer of human vulnerabilities and foibles while using humor to make his points.
Love Letters is a play by A. R. Gurney that was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. The play centers on two characters, Melissa Gardner and Andrew Makepeace Ladd III., They sit side by side at tables and read the notes, letters and cards – in which over nearly 50 years, they discuss their hopes and ambitions, dreams and disappointments, victories and defeats – that have passed between them throughout their separated lives.
