Love Letters

Dow Automotive and The Purple Rose Theatre Company, in collaboration with The Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA), The Detroit Film Theatre (DFT) and The Flea Theater in New York, will present a single benefit performance of Sigourney Weaver and Jeff Daniels in A. R. Gurney’s critically acclaimed play, Love Letters. The performance at the newly restored DFT will be followed by a cocktail reception and intimate dinner at the DIA with Ms. Weaver and Mr. Daniels.

Nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in drama, Love Letters centers on two characters, Melissa Gardner (Weaver) and Andrew Makepeace Ladd III (Daniels), as they read the hilarious and poignant letters that have passed between them throughout their lives. Jim Simpson directs.
