Comedy/drama adapted by James Roose-Evans from book by Helen Hanff. Presented by arrangement with Samuel French, Inc. Parental guidance suggested as young children may have difficulty following the humor and references of the dialogue
Join us for a Valentine’s Day presentation of this true story about the long-distance relationship between a struggling writer in New York (Helene Hanff) and the manager (Frank Doel) and staff of an antiquarian book store in London. Told through a series of letters, 84 CHARING CROSS ROAD celebrates the love of good literature, evolving friendships, and a yearning to meet in person. The play takes place over a twenty year period, beginning in 1949 when Helene first writes to the delightfully dusty supplier of so many old volumes and begins the decades-long relationship. "Charming, charming, charming.... A gently touching hands across the sea chronicle, sentimental in the best sense of the word." N.Y. Daily News. "Warm, moving, civilized. A wonderful evening on Broadway." WABC TV.
