The Fool Moon Theatre Company is set to present A.R. Gurney’s cherished play, “Love Letters,” at the Margate Community Church on February 3rd at 7:30 p.m. and February 4th at 2 p.m. Located at 8900 Ventnor Avenue, with the entrance on Thurlow Avenue, the play promises an evening of emotion and nostalgia.
“Love Letters” is a poignant exploration of the lifelong, complex friendship between Andrew Ladd and Melissa Gardner, whose relationship unfolds through their exchange of letters over 50 years. This tender and sometimes comedic story delves into themes of missed opportunities and the enduring nature of friendship.
The production will feature Mark Sarto and Rosanna Consalvo Sarto in the lead roles, both of whom are celebrated local actors with significant theatrical accomplishments. “Having Mark and Rosanna on board brings a dynamic energy to the play. Their portrayal of the characters will resonate deeply with the audience,” said director Paul Herron.
Rosanna Consalvo Sarto, portraying Melissa Gardner, is known for her recent role in “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee” and has a rich background in acting and directing. Mark Sarto, playing Andrew Makepeace Ladd III, has been acclaimed for his versatile performances both on stage and on screen, including appearances on Nickelodeon, NBC, and HBO.
