A House Full of Letters tells the story of impoverished women living in a post-apocalyptic Re-United States of America. When a group of women discover an exiled man nearby, their world is shaken and they embark on new territories of knowledge that ultimately shatter their reality. A House Full of Letters delves into class systems, young romantic love, religion, government control, and the passion to live despite the odds.

Based on Studs Terkel's best-selling book of interviews with American workers, Working paints a vivid portrait of the workers that the world so often takes for granted: the schoolteacher, the phone operator, the waitress, the millworker, the mason and the housewife, just to name a few. Nominated for six Tony Awards, the show's strengths are in the core truths that transcend specific professions; the key is how people's relationships to their work ultimately reveal essential aspects of their humanity, regardless of the trappings of the job itself. 

SYNOPSIS: George and Charlotte Hay, a husband-and-wife team of actors, struggle to perform Cyrano de Bergerac and Private Lives in repertory while dealing with family crises and the possibility of a Hollywood director's visit.
