Michael Learned and Ralph Waite — who starred together as Olivia and John Walton on the television hit The Waltons — are currently reuniting for a production of A.R. Gurney’s Love Letters, playing at Victoria Playhouse Petrolia in Ontatrio, Canada through August 26.

Love Letters tells the poignant story of the relationship of Melissa Gardner and Andrew Makepeace Ladd III. He gets stuffier through the years. She gets more neurotic.

As previously reported, Learned and Waite will also both be participating in a Waltons 40th anniversary event in Los Angeles at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre on September 29.
