A R Gurney’s internationally acclaimed stage hit is a heart-warming, poignant play about two people, Andy Ladd III and Melissa Gardner, who write letters to each other over a period of fifty years. It's the life journey of two soul mates - enacted through words both written and unsaid - who share the greatest gift of all: the gift of love.

The play, directed by Rahul Dacunha opened in 1993 and has completed over 300 performances since then. It is perhaps the longest running English play in India.
