Love, Tom and "Have You Talked to My Mother?" Double Bill Play Reading

Written by Julia Rank. Performed by Scott Beaudin.

This double bill reading draws on recollections from the life of Stratford Festival founder Tom Patterson.

Love, Tom is a collection of letters written to Patterson’s parents during his service in World War II, beginning at the age of 20. “Have You Talked to My Mother?” transports us to the Festival Theatre on July 2, 1957, where Patterson recounts an unexpected journey of generosity that helped bring his dream to life.
