Bryan Batt and Patricia Clarkson will perform in A.R. Gurney’s Love Letters, at The Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre/Laura Pels Theatre on Monday, November 7 at 7:30pm. The event will benefit The Actors Fund. Tom Cianfichi will direct.

In the play, the relationship between a man and a woman is charted through their correspondence from childhood through adulthood.

Batt’s stage credits include Sunset Boulevard, Jeffrey, and La Cage aux Folles. He may be best known for his portrayal of Salvatore Romano on AMC’s Mad Men.

Clarkson has been seen on Broadway in The House of Blue Leaves and Eastern Standard and Off-Broadway in The Maiden’s Prayer. In addition, she received an Academy Award nomination for her performance in the movie Pieces of April and won two Emmy Awards for her work on Six Feet Under.

The actors previously performed the play together at a benefit in New Orleans earlier this year.

Benefit tickets are $100, $150 and $200. For more information or to purchase, click here.
