Following a critically acclaimed run in New York, Ken Ludwig’s Dear Jack, Dear Louise makes its UK premiere at the Arcola Theatre. Playing a strictly limited run, book your official tickets to Ken Ludwig’s Dear Jack, Dear Louise today.
When two strangers meet by letter during World War II, it sparks an unlikely correspondence that will change their lives forever.
Jack is a military doctor and US Army Captain stationed in Oregon, earnest and duty-bound. Louise is an aspiring actress and dancer in New York, brimming with sparkle and big-city dreams. What begins as one letter soon turns into hundreds.
Inspired by the meeting of Ludwig’s own parents, this joyful and profoundly moving play reminds us that even in the darkest chapters of history, the heart still finds a way to write its own story.
