What if La La Land chose love over ambition? What if The Notebook kept going 50 years later? When a granddaughter uncovers a box of forgotten love letters, she finds herself slipping between a 1956 Brooklyn summer alive with possibility and a present-day American diner steeped in nostalgia. Inspired by hundreds of real letters, Letters to Joan is an intimate new play to capture every Fringe-goer's heart, about the dreams we chase, the ones we abandon, and the unshakeable longing for the life that might have been.
