Playwright A. R. Gurney explores the evolution of love between two people in his drama "Love Letters". The play begins in 1937, with simple letters of two early childhood friends Andrew “Andy” Makepeace Ladd III (played by Robert Burnett) and Melissa Gardner (played by Denita Burnett). The correspondence between them continues through boarding school, college years, and adulthood, ultimately spanning nearly 50 years. Andy and Melissa journey through moments of awkwardness, humor, frustration, happiness, disappointment, pleasure and sadness.

A special aspect of this show is that all proceeds will benefit the newly established “Bobby Jean Wymer Memorial Scholarship.” Wymer was a dedicated English faculty member at WCC from 1968 until her retirement in 2002. As such, there is no set ticket price; donations of any amount will be gladly accepted.
