Love is breaking out in Baltimore. Or should we say the “second time around”? Nearly 50 years after starring together in Love Story, Ali MacGraw and Ryan O’Neal have brought A.R. Gurney’s Love Letters to the Hippodrome Theatre.
To mark this return of romance to Charm City, Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake proclaimed this “Ali MacGraw and Ryan O’Neal Week” in ceremonies Monday at the Hippodrome. Also on hand was Ron Legler, president of the Hippodrome Theatre.
Looking fit and relaxed, the two graying stars joked about the good weather and accepted a printed proclamation from the mayor. “Will this help get us a table in restaurants?,” cracked O’Neal.
The actors also accepted souvenir Orioles caps from the mayor, which O’Neal immediately donned with a wide grin.
Love Letters, a two-person play told in exchanged correspondence by a couple over the course of a 50-year relationship is currently on a national tour. It opens June 7th and runs through June 12th at the Hippodrome Theatre at The France-Merrick Performing Arts Center – 12 North Eutaw Street, in Baltimore, MD.
