Love Letters , a Pulitzer Prize for Drama nominated play, was written by A.R. Gurney and originally opened off-Broadway in March 1989, where it ran 64 performances. The play was performed only on Sunday and Monday evenings and changed its cast weekly.

The play centers on just two characters, Melissa Gardner and Andrew Makepeace Ladd III. Using the epistolary form sometimes found in novels, they sit side by side at tables and read the notes, letters and cards - in which over nearly 50 years, they discuss their hopes and ambitions, dreams and disappointments, victories and defeats - that have passed between them throughout their separated lives.
