We close today! Was endlessly in love with this production and this cast and team. Will miss this show...and hope for another production soon! -DZ
_____________ Teresa Gasparini, Hudson Valley Ovation: "…a story perfect for our times, specifically singing out to [those who] grew up in an analog world but are now living as adults in a digital world...Zellnik explores whether our words free us or imprison us, whether love is rare or everywhere around us, and whether we are, or even want to be, smaller and smaller in a big world. The script captures the audience’s attention and will remain in their thoughts long after the show is over.” Read more... Macey Levin, Berkshire Onstage: "David Zellnik’s engrossing play The Letters is receiving its world premiere at the Bridge Street Theatre in Catskill, New York. It is 2014 and the thirty-four year old Rajiv says to the audience, “What is irreplaceable nowadays? Love? Well, maybe. In a simple and almost mindless way, you can replace one person’s love with another. But what about the person who gave you that love? Now, that’s irreplaceable.” “Irreplaceable” is the driving force in this love story as it applies to four young people who attempt to define their relationships and their own identities."

I might or might not have compared myself to Shaw in the opening paragraph...but I'm so pleased with how deep we got into the play and the ideas behind it! Also check out this article and some fun great pictures on BroadwayWorld! TICKETS HERE!   I could not be more thrilled this is happening. We have a stunning cast and amazing creative team. (And thanks BW for desiring it as a "brilliant and deeply moving" play! -- we'll work our butts off to make sure those adjectives are earned.) Read all about it here!
