After beginning previews August 26, the world premiere of Ngozi Anyanwu’s The Last of the Love Letter opened with the Atlantic Theater Company September 13. The production is scheduled to play through September 26 at the Linda Gross Theater.

The play is billed as a “plea and a painful goodbye wrapped into one” and follows two people as they contemplate what they love most and whether to leave it behind. In addition to Anyanwu, the Patricia McGregor-helmed production stars Daniel J. Watts (currently Tony-nominated for Tina: The Tina Turner Musical) and Xavier Scott Evans.
