Love Letters – a Special Performance at SPSS with proceeds to our outreach ministries

LOVE LETTERS
by A. R. Gurney
Featuring Carol Peck and Michael Burgess
St. Valentine’s Day – Friday, February 14th, 2025, at 8:00 pm

 “A table, two chairs and a pair of actors reading from scripts on an otherwise bare stage sounds like one notch up from a radio play. But A.R. Gurney’s deceptively simple epistolary two-hander, Love Letters, is that rare work whose emotional richness requires no embellishment in order to become a full-bodied theatrical experience… in the age of texts, tweets and superficial social-media connections, in which handwritten personal correspondence has become a quaint relic of a gentler time, this elegant drama takes on added resonance.” ~ Hollywood Reporter

A finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Love Letters is 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. As the actors read the letters aloud, 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.

Admission $25, Students and Seniors $20: Tickets available at the door as well as after Sunday services.
Proceeds to support our outreach ministry at SPSS.
