SCC Foundation's annual dinner theater to feature A.R. Gurney's 'Love Letters'

SYLVA – From the time they were in the second grade, Andrew Makepeace Ladd, III, and Melissa Gardiner corresponded with each other through letters. This correspondence began as the pair forged an amusing friendship and it continued through the years - and through an ill-fated romance - as they passed through adolescence, maturity and into middle age.

These individuals and their letters are at the heart of "Love Letters," a play by A.R. Gurney that will be performed by actors Lloyd Kay and Reta Scribner as the Southwestern Community College's annual spring dinner theater gala on April 19. The event will begin at 6:30 p.m. with a European dinner buffet and dessert bar.

At 8 p.m., Kay and Scribner will portray their characters during a life-long friendship as seen through the honesty of their letters.

Admission to this year's dinner theater will cost $40, and only 135 tickets will be sold for this event. All proceeds will go toward the SCC Foundation, which helps enable Southwestern to expand educational opportunities for students by providing money that would be otherwise unavailable.
