Title: Jill Eichenberry and Michael Tucker: Love Letters
Author: Sunday, February 14, 2010 at 3PM
Real-life husband-and-wife and former L.A. Law co-stars Michael Tucker and Jill Eichenberry star in A. R. Gurney’s romantic story of a couple and their fifty-year journey together. Background: Love Letters is a Pulitzer Prize for Drama nominated play by A. R. Gurney. 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. Melissa is portrayed as rich, spoiled, with a private nurse and private schools, artistic, certainly lascivious, divorced, eventually alcoholic, bi-polar, and suicidal. She hates writing "these goddamned letters" while Andy Ladd is square, destined for Yale, a naval officer, a lawyer, and a U.S. Senator, and says that "writing letters is what he loves most". In his preface to LOVE LETTERS, A. R. Gurney suggests that his emphasis in this play on the importance of writing is more than coincidental. Many in the audience leave a powerful LOVE LETTERS performance with a tear on their cheeks. Jill Eikenberry and Michael Tucker are perhaps best known for their starring roles on NBC-TV's long running series L.A. Law. Although they have separate careers in theater, film, and television, they recently completed an 8 month starring role in the acclaimed Off Broadway musical ENTER LAUGHING.
