Ken Ludwig's Dear Jack, Dear Louise
BY KEN LUDWIG
Directed by SEEMA SUEKO
Presented in partnership with NAUTICUS
Running May 18-23 at 7:30pm, VSC will present Ken Ludwig’s Dear Jack, Dear Louise upon the deck of the USS Wisconsin. Dear Jack, Dear Louise tells the story of a military doctor and a Broadway chorus performer’s unlikely romance, entirely via letters, during WWII. We’re taking our members behind-the-scenes in the theatrical process as we present the show as a staged reading before the full-scale production on the Wells Stage in the Fall. Tickets for this performance are not available to the public but are reserved for Virginia Stage Company Season 42 members. Streaming is available for those members who don’t want to join us on the deck of the USS Wisconsin.
Winner of the 2020 Helen Hayes / Charles MacArthur Award for Best New Play or Musical of the Year!
““An intimate play with tremendous breadth... Ken Ludwig’s DEAR JACK, DEAR LOUISE plumbs the depths of human courage, commitment, and connection when the world and your heart are at stake.” ”
Tickets to the public will be available for the full mainstage production at the Wells this fall.
