Paula Plum Directs LOVE, LOSS, AND WHAT I WORE With Hub Theatre Company Of Boston
An event ten years in the making! Hub Theatre Company of Boston will conclude the celebration of its 10th anniversary season with the revival of Nora and Delia Ephron's Love, Loss and What I Wore, directed by local favorite Paula Plum.
The show will run at Club Café, 209 Columbus Ave. in Boston's Back Bay, from Saturday, July 22, through Saturday, August 5, 2023 with performances on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 pm, Sundays at 2:00 pm and a Saturday matinee on August 5 at 2:00 pm.
Tickets to all performances are “Pay-What-You-Can.” Donations of new and gently worn clothing will be collected for charity so, in addition to bringing your friends and family, bring that bridesmaid dress you will never wear again, those shoes that pinch your toes, and those jeans you haven't worn since Bill Clinton was in office - we promise to find them all good homes!

From the acclaimed creators of When Harry Met Sally and Sleepless in Seattle comes a hilarious and heartwarming play that attempts to answer the age-old question: how do I have a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear? With odes to first bras, overstuffed purses, tyrannical dressing rooms and outfits that made our mothers cringe, Love, Loss and What I Wore is a love letter to the outfits that got us through life's ups, downs and everything in between. Come reminisce with us and take a stroll down your own closet's memory lane.
Five of Boston's best dressed actresses –Nettie Chickering, Barbara Douglas, Lauren Elias, Evelyn Holley and June Kfoury – will bring these funny memoirs and intimate musings to the stage under the direction of five-time Elliot Norton Award winner Paula Plum, with Elliot Norton Award winner and Boston's resident fashionista Kiki Samko as assistant director.
