About this Event
In 1863, a time when handwritten letters carried news of hope or despair, a correspondence began between two young New England residents whose relationship blossomed in the shadow of the Civil War. Missed opportunities, unreliable mail, and the ever-present threat of tragedy raised profound obstacles that would make or break their bond. This dramatization of the deeply moving real-life correspondence between two individuals proves the triumph of human connection despite all adversity.
Based on actual love letters, this historical drama was produced and directed by veteran TV/film actress and written by award-winning, internationally acclaimed playwright .
The cast, headed by David Macharelli and Olivia Wadsworth, features Robert Kwalick, John Fabiani, Joel Osborne, Harmony Tanguay, and Roni Gelormino.
On April 1, 2026, A Goodnight Kiss made history as the first play ever staged at the Connecticut State Capitol Building in Hartford. The script is housed in the Permanent Collection of the Library of Congress.
