Andrew and Melissa’s lifelong correspondence begins as childhood friends exchanging notes and birthday cards. Their bond becomes stronger over the years, even though they are far apart. Andy goes to Yale, Melissa flunks out of college. She marries and he goes off to war. Fall head over heels for A.R. Gurney’s iconic epistolary play Love Letters, the story of a 50-year correspondence between Melissa Gardner and her childhood-friend-turned-lover, Andrew Makepeace Ladd III.
San Diego favorites, real-life husband and wife, Heather and Bill Deerfield bring Melissa and Andrew to live for one night only on the Coronado Playhouse stage.
