Love Letters at the Blackstone

Love Letters, a two-character play that re-enacts through a fifty-year correspondence the lives and loves of two childhood friends, has been a favorite of audiences, critics and actors since its 1988 debut at the Long Wharf Theater.  

Nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in Drama, Love Letters was hailed by William A. Henry, III, in Time magazine as "… [a] beautiful … tender sketch of the bond between two people who cannot live with, or without, each other."  Written with humor and poignancy, the play takes us through the characters’ childhood and the vagaries of adulthood and middle age.
