Among the many charms of “Dear Jack, Dear Louise,” Ken Ludwig’s beguiling play about his parents’ courtship during World War II, is the way it suggests the power of handwritten letters.

As it happens, Jack and Louise were put in touch at the suggestion of their fathers, Jewish immigrant tailors from Eastern Europe who somehow knew each other. Jack was reserved, while Louise was feisty and exuberant. Yet somehow their personalities managed to click as they shared their various frustrations, disappointments, fears and successes. And, in one of the more laugh-inducing moments in the play, it is the very first signing of a letter using the word “love” that begins to change things.
