DATES/TIMES: Thursday, December 5th – 7 pm and Sunday, December 8th – 2pm; ON STAGE at the Lark Theater
WHAT: Starring two renowned Bay Area actors & real-life married couple Nancy Carlin and Howard Swain. Back by popular demand, Love Letters is comprised of romantic letters exchanged over a lifetime between two people who grew up together, went their separate ways, but continued to share their beautiful love for each other through letters.
First written & performed in 1988 at the NY Public Library, close to 60 diverse actors, often celebrities, have performed the play since then. In the words of the author, the play “needs no theatre, no lengthy rehearsal, no special set, no memorization of lines, and no commitment from its two actors beyond the night of the performance.”
CAST:
Nancy Carlin has performed and directed extensively in regional theaters and film, including the American Conservatory Theater, California Shakespeare Theater, Berkeley Rep, Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Aurora Theatre, Marin Theatre Company, and more.
Howard Swain has worked at the American Conservatory Theater, Berkeley Rep, San Jose Rep, The Magic Theatre, Marines Memorial, Theatre-On-The-Square, The Eureka Theatre, San Jose Stage, and Marin Theatre, among others.
