"A unique declaration of love for letter-writing!" (Elisa Walker, BNN, 07.04.2017)
Back in 2017, the BNN called this production a "real hit". Now Love Letters returns to the SANDKORN stage in a revised new edition.
A woman, a man, and their letters - that is all it takes to tell this story of a great love. The audience witnesses a lifelong correspondence: sketches of two lives, bound together through good times and bad, witty, tragic, and sharp. She: chaotic, emotional, a wealthy child of divorce. He: stiff, always composed, career-driven, from a stable but modest background. Susanne Buchenberger and Martin Wacker bring these two characters to life, adding fresh touches while building on their earlier success.
"The protagonists' styles are unmistakable: [...] This highly entertaining exchange delivers just the right amount of humour. What is remarkable is that the entire 90 minutes unfolds at just two desks - and yet, precisely because of that, the piece develops into something both intimate and dynamic."
