A.R. Gurney’s Pulitzer Prize-nominated play, Love Letters, chronicles a fifty-year relationship between two lifelong friends, Andrew Makepeace Ladd III and Melissa Gardner. Told entirely through the exchange of letters, notes, and cards, the story follows them from second grade through adulthood, war, and separate marriages. Andrew follows a path of duty and political success, while Melissa leads a rebellious, artistic life marked by personal struggle. Despite their diverging paths, their lifelong correspondence reveals a complex, enduring bond of missed opportunities and deep affection that transcends distance and time.
