Located in the Lower Level, the Raymond Hood Room is transformed into a listening room café where artists and their work are respected and supported. This very special space is named after the architect who designed the Scranton Cultural Center in the 1920s. Hood is widely known for his Art Deco and Neo Gothic design style which is evident throughout the entire building. Nationally recognized works include 30 Rockefeller Plaza, American Radiator Building, Daily News, The Emporis, Tribune Tower and The Ocean Forest Hotel in Myrtle Beach among others.

Artists: For anyone interested in performing: there are no rules. We encourage free form prose, poetry, stand up, improv and original music. It’s the perfect space to test out new material or projects. For information on how you can become involved, contact Maria at marias@sccmt.org or (570) 346-7369 x102.

Guests: Please be reminded that since this is a performance space, we do ask that you keep the conversation to a whisper. We recognize that this is a social setting, and there is ample lobby space for interacting and networking.

A.R. Gurney’s “Love Letters” starring Barbara Eden & Barry Bostwick
Feb 1 @ 8:00 PM – 10:00 PM

Scranton Cultural Center presents

Barbara Eden & Barry Bostwick starring in
A.R. Gurney’s LOVE LETTERS

Reserved Seating | Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Theatre | $62.50-$42.50, $50.00 Post Show Meet and Greet Upgrade

America’s long running hit play – pulling your heart strings – and now starring Two Iconic Stars – Barbara Eden and Barry Bostwick! It’s the late A.R. Gurney’s most famous Broadway production – holding audiences spellbound throughout the USA. It’s a sure-fire sentimental evening of star power and supreme acting. Theatres all over America have been thrilling to TV’s I Dream Of Jeannie and the ‘Rocky Horrow Show’s’ Barry Bostwick – live onstage. Barbara and Barry deliver a once-in-a-lifetime evening. Don’t miss it!

A.R. Gurney’s Love Letters is a funny and emotional portrait about the powerful connection of love. Two friends, rebellious Melissa Gardner and straight-arrow Andrew Makepeace Ladd III have exchanged notes, cards and letters with each other for over 50 years. From second grade, through summer vacations, to college, and well into adulthood, they have spent a lifetime discussing their hopes and ambitions, dreams and disappointments, and victories and defeats. But long after the letters are done, the real question remains: Have they made the right choices or is the love of their life only a letter away?
