Ephron Play on Love, Loss to be Staged in Berkeley Heights
Performances at the Wharton center benefit breast cancer research.
The Berkeley Light Opera Company will present Love, Loss and What I Wore on the weekends of Oct. 25 and Nov. 1 at the Judith G. Wharton Music Center in Berkeley Heights.
The play, by Nora and Delia Ephron, is based on the book by Ilene Beckerman and uses clothing, accessories and the memories they trigger to tell funny stories women can relate to.
Love, Loss, and What I Wore premiered in 2008 and went on to run 1,013 performances off-Broadway with a rotation of cast members including actresses such as Rosie O'Donnell, Jane Lynch, Kristin Chenoweth, Debra Monk and Donna McKecknie.
