Based on Mitch Albom's four-year New York Times bestseller, Tuesdays with Morrie is the autobiographical story of Albom, an accomplished journalist driven by career, and Morrie Schwartz, his former college professor, who is battling ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease). Upon learning of Morrie's illness, Albom seeks to reconnect with his old professor. What starts as a simple visit turns into a weekly pilgrimage and a last class in the meaning of life. Adapted for the stage by Albom and Jeffrey Hatcher, Tuesdays with Morrie is a chronicle of friendship and a lesson in what really matters.
