See Love Letters at the Mount Players this May

The Mount Players theatre company is inviting locals to soak up the emotions of A.R. Gurney’s tragi-comic Love Letters.

The play tells the complicated story of two lifelong friends who are true loves on paper.

The two characters of Andrew and Melissa will be played by Sunbury’s Darren Gregor and Jackie Harvey, who are no strangers to the Mount Players stage.

Gregor is also well known in the wider Melbourne theatre circuit.

He is dedicating his performance in Love Letters to his parents, Robert and Helen, who met as pen pals.

Harvey has had roles on television, and said she is delighted to be performing in the challenging role of Melissa, directed by her father, Frank Harvey.

Mr Harvey has directed dozens of plays throughout his 25 years involved in theatre. He said Love Letters was one of his favourites.

Love Letters will be performed from May 11 through to May 27 at the theatre in Macedon.
