Love, Loss and What I Wore

Nora Ephron and Delia Ephron, based on the book by Ilene Beckerman
Directed by Belle Burr

May 17th – June 9th, 2024

An evening of hilariously funny and often poignant short scenes and monologues by noted comic writer and director Nora Ephron (When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle, Heartburn) and Delia Ephron that depict how an item of clothing can hold a past identity, body shape, and hopes seized or abandoned. In this delightfully dishy trip down memory lane a dress, a shoe, a hat can serve as a jumping off point for bigger themes such as falling in and out of love, familial relationships, or a same-sex marriage.


Breezy and enjoyable. A show about matters of the heart and matters of the closet.
