ReAct's A Letter to Three Wives, based on the award winning film by Joseph Mankewicz, is not only tru to the original, but maybe better.

Amy Waschke, Colleen Burke and Ellen Dessler play the three wives in a post-World War II town, who receive a cryptic letter from a woman they have all grown to dislike. As each woman wonders if it is her Husband this Eva Ross (Deborah LaBounty) has run off with, the audience gets to see why each woman is worried. Flashbacks to earlier moments in which each woman had problems in her relationship paint a picture that fleshes itself out and becomes fuel for the "homewrecker's" fire.

Good strong performances by an ensemble cast that includes regulars to ReAct like T.J. Langley, Gordon Hendrickson and David Hsieh, give the play depth and a sense of time and place. It is as if the entire theatre has time travelled back to the days after World War II, to an upper middle class pocket in "anytown" America. Definitely as engrossing as the memorable film and probably one of ReAct's best efforts to date.
