Good Company Players’ 2nd Space Theatre

928 E. Olive Avenue at Wishon
Fresno, CA 93728
559-266-0660

Current show: Love Letters
Performed by a rotating cast, this evocative play traces the relationship of Melissa Gardner and Andrew Makepeace Ladd III through 50 years of correspondence. Although the 2nd grade classmates have been separated by boarding school, college, war, marriage and politics, they are linked by a bond far stronger than distance or disagreement. Funny, poignant, and romantic, Melissa and Andy’s story will be all the more fascinating as re-told by four different sets of actors throughout the run of the play.

Thursday Shows 7:30 pm curtain $16 general admission; $15 students/seniors

A play of extravagant romance and combustible desire, Force of Nature brings together the “perfect couple”, Edward and Charlotte, with two persons from their past; a beautiful young woman and an older man, Edward’s best friend.
