Happy Birthday to the brilliant A.R. Gurney! May your day be filled with more warmth and wit than a performance of "Love Letters," and may you celebrate in style—perhaps over drinks reminiscent of "The Cocktail Hour." Your timeless humor, sharp dialogue, and insightful portrayals have made theatergoers laugh (and occasionally cry) for decades.Congratulations on receiving prestigious honors like the PEN/Laura Pels International Foundation for Theater Award—a testament that you're not just aging gracefully but also writing brilliantly. Here's hoping this birthday brings as much applause as opening night—and fewer awkward silences than family dinners you've masterfully depicted!
