Love, Loss, and What I Wore at Patio Playhouse

Patio Playhouse Community Theater is proud to present Love, Loss, and What I Wore, a play by Nora Ephron and Delia Ephron and based on the book by Ilene Beckerman. This production, which will be open for a single weekend running February 11-13, features an array of ensemble scenes and monologues about women, their clothes, and how those clothes somehow covertly intersect all of the best, worst, and most memorable moments of our lives. Love, Loss, and What I Wore stars Cinda K. Lucas (Gingy), Denelda Norwood, Lenelle Wylie, Sarah Alida LeClair, and Cassiopeia Guthrie. While the show is produced very simply with the five actors seated across the stage, the audience still feels a part of something intimate and special, making this the perfect pre-Valentines or galentines weekend excursion for a group of friends. While, according to the New York Times, this show is not a comedy: A story about black cowboy boots becomes a sad tale of being underappreciated in a relationship; a tale of two women shopping for their wedding outfits ends bittersweetly; and the recollection of a new bra is a quiet testament to a womans search for dignity while undergoing treatment for breast cancer, it still finds itself being funny and compelling. Furthermore, this production is an iteration of the same show that was recently staged at Coronado Playhouse with some common cast members, where it enjoyed sold out crowds at that venue and was received with raving reviews.
