When two strangers meet by letter during World War II, a love story begins.
US Army Captain Jack Ludwig, a military doctor stationed in Oregon, begins writing to Louise Rabiner, an aspiring actress and dancer in New York City, hoping to meet her someday if the war will allow. But as the conflict continues, it threatens to end their relationship before it even starts.
Tony Award-winning playwright Ken Ludwig’s Dear Jack, Dear Louise tells the joyous, heartwarming story of his parents’ courtship—and the results are anything but expected.
