Production Synopsis:

Written by sisters Nora Ephron and Delia Ephron, Love, Loss, and What I Wore is a poignant and witty collection of monologues that explores the deep connections between clothing and personal experiences. Based on the book by Ilene Beckerman, the play weaves together stories of love, heartbreak, family, friendships, and the pivotal moments in life—all told through the lens of the outfits that accompanied them.

This intimate and engaging production delves into the memories sparked by a favorite dress, an ill-fated prom outfit, or the shoes that carried someone through life’s biggest challenges. With humor and honesty, Love, Loss, and What I Wore celebrates the power of fashion as a marker of identity, growth, and transformation.

Structured as a series of vignettes, the play features a diverse cast of women sharing their joys, struggles, and triumphs. Audiences will find themselves laughing, reminiscing, and maybe even shedding a tear as they relate to these deeply human stories.

A touching and relatable theatrical experience, Love, Loss, and What I Wore is a tribute to the garments that hold our memories and the stories that make us who we are.
