"Love Letters" at NMU
2025-06-27 19:30 - 21:00, 2025-06-26 19:30 - 21:00 | MI
Northern Michigan University Theatre & Dance will present “Love Letters” by A.R. Gurney, a past nominee for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. The play features two characters—Melissa Gardner and Andrew Makepeace Ladd III—whose 50-year correspondence chronicles their evolving relationship and shared confidences. It has been described as “a tender, tragi-comic and nuanced examination of the shared nostalgia, missed opportunities and deep closeness of two lifelong, complicated friends.” Showtimes are scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Thursday, June 26 through Saturday, June 28, in Forest Roberts Theatre.
The play stars Amy Dolan-Malaney and Robert Ouellette, both seasoned actors who performed “Love Letters” together in Florida seven years ago. Because Dolan-Malaney and her husband, Dennis—an NMU alumnus—have called Big Bay their summer home for more than 35 years, she pitched the idea of the two actors reuniting for another production in Marquette, and NMU made it part of this year’s North Coast Theatre & Dance Festival.
While spanning five decades and numerous locations, the unique and imaginative piece is staged simply, as the playwright intended. Dolan-Malaney said the approach works because the play is so well-written.
“Gurney advised against wearing costumes, getting up and moving around, and even acting, really,” she said. “He wanted actors to just trust that by reading the letters and not over-rehearsing or memorizing, it will work. And sure enough, when we performed it that first time in Florida, people were very engaged and laughed in all the right places. It’s both funny and heartbreaking.
“We’ve been reading it back and forth via Zoom to reacquaint ourselves with all the words because you have to get them out clearly. But we’re very anxious to get this in front of audiences again. It’s hard to really listen in this very loud world we’re in right now, but I know that those who come to the show and listen to the words these characters share through their letters will have a really good experience.”
The characters are childhood friends whose lifelong correspondence begins with birthday party thank-you notes and summer camp postcards. Romantically attached, they continue to exchange letters through the boarding school and college years—where Andy goes on to excel at Yale and law school, while Melissa flunks out of a series of “good schools.”
While Andy is off at war Melissa marries, but her attachment to Andy remains strong and she continues to keep in touch as he marries, becomes a successful attorney, gets involved in politics and, eventually, is elected to the U.S. Senate. Meanwhile, her marriage in tatters, Melissa dabbles in art and gigolos, drinks more than she should, and becomes estranged from her children. Eventually she and Andy do become involved in a brief affair, but it is really too late for both of them. However, Andy’s last letter, written to her mother after Melissa’s untimely death, makes it eloquently clear how much they really meant, and gave to, each other over the years—physically apart, perhaps, but spiritually as close as only true lovers can be.
“At one point, around college age, they get very intimate in their letter writing,” Dolan-Malaney said. “And then they actually meet and it’s an unsuccessful meeting because they keep looking for the person from the letters. When you write, it’s easier to express your feelings and emotions openly. So the problem, as they discussed later, was that they kept looking for the person they had been writing to and the one they met in person didn’t live up to that, so the meeting crashed.”
Marquette audiences may recognize Dolan-Malaney from performances of “I Do, I Do,” “Little Women,” and her one-woman show “I’m Becoming My Mother” at Lake Superior Theatre. Other credits include the first national and Broadway cast recording of “Do Black Patent Leather Shoes Really Reflect Up?” She has also worked at Flint Repertory Theatre and others across the country. Her opera credits include a 21-year affiliation with the Michigan Opera Theatre at the Detroit Opera House.
Tickets are $25 for the general public, $22 for NMU employees, seniors and military, $15 for youth and $5 for NMU students. They are available at nmu.edu/tickets.

Soo Locks to host Engineers Day 2025
2025-06-27 09:00 - 17:30 | MI
SAULT STE. MARIE, Mich. – The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in conjunction with the City of Sault Ste. Marie, the Sault Ste. Marie Convention & Visitors Bureau, the United States Coast Guard, the Lake Superior State University Center for Freshwater Research and Education, Hospice of the Eastern Upper Peninsula, and Superior Health Systems are hosting open house events for the 2025 Soo Locks Engineers Day on June 27.

Visitors are welcome into the Soo Locks facility and across the MacArthur Lock from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., Friday, June 27.

Engineers Day honors the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ June 16, 1775, birthday. The Corps of Engineers is proud to celebrate 250 years of service to the nation. Since the beginning, the Corps of Engineers has been at the forefront of engineering excellence, responding to the nation’s most complex challenges with unmatched expertise and dedication..

“The Soo Locks are a vital part of our community’s history. Engineers Day lets us celebrate the history and ingenuity behind the Soo Locks,” said Linda Hoath, executive director of the Sault Area Convention & Visitors Bureau. “Over the past few years, we’ve helped grow Engineers Day into an event that involves the whole downtown. We look forward to welcoming visitors and residents alike to downtown for Engineers Day.”

“We are continuing the requirement for all bags coming into the Soo Locks to be clear,” Jason Wojnaroski Soo Project Office Assistant Operations Manager said.. “Clear bags will allow park security to quickly inspect bags and assist with making this a fun and safe event for everyone..”

For our visitors bringing bags, the Engineers Day policy for the Soo Locks follows:

Clear bags cannot be larger than 12 inches long, 6 inches deep and 12 inches wide.
Diaper bags are not allowed.
Medical bags are exempt.
Wallets must not have a strap and cannot exceed 4.5 inches by 6.5 inches.

All people entering the Soo Locks are subject to a security search. Firearms, weapons including knives of any size, drugs, pets (except service animals) and bicycles are not permitted.

“Visitors will not be able to cross the Poe Lock again this year, due to ongoing construction for the New Lock at the Soo project,” said LeighAnn Ryckeghem, Soo Project Office Operations Manager. “Visitors will be able to cross the MacArthur Lock and tour the first floor of the historic Administration Building.”

Visitors should enter the Soo Locks facility at the east end, crossing the downstream gate of the MacArthur Lock, and exiting the west end, crossing back on the upstream gate. This path equals about a half mile (.5 miles) of walking.

Along with welcoming visitors into the Soo Locks complex, Canal Park and the viewing platform will be open to the public from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m., and the Soo Locks Visitor Center will be open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The Sault Ste. Marie Convention and Visitors Bureau is closing a portion of Portage Avenue to focus on downtown city merchants and vendors. Downtown Portage Avenue will close to vehicle traffic and open for pedestrians and vendors between Ferris Street and Osborn Boulevard from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., June 28.

Along with allowing visitors into the Soo Locks facility, several other events will take place:

United States Coast Guard open house from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Hospice of the Eastern Upper Peninsula and Superior Health Systems Arts, Crafts and Family Fun Fair at the City Hall grounds from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Lake Superior State University Center for Freshwater Research and Education will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Houghton - Soul Shop: Faith-based Suicide Prevention Training
2025-06-26 08:30 - 16:00 | Trinity Episcopal Church, 205 E. Montezuma Avenue, Houghton, MI, 49931, United States
Soul Shop: Faith-based suicide prevention training set for June 26
The following press release was posted on our website on June 2, 2025.

Copper Shores Outreach & Education is hosting Soul Shop with the Episcopal Diocese of Northern Michigan on Thursday, June 26 from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Trinity Episcopal Church in Houghton (245 East Montezuma Avenue). Soul Shop is a suicide prevention training program designed for leaders and members of all faith-based communities. Training is free to attend and open to members of all faith-based communities; breakfast and lunch will be provided.

“This training is a great pastoral tool for those in the church and a great inside look for those outside of the church,” said Marna Franson, Missioner with the Episcopal Diocese of Northern Michigan. “Soul Shop allows for a collaborative vision of community intervention to be implemented between the religious space and the mental health profession.”

This training opportunity reflects a broader effort to close the gaps between faith and mental health support in meaningful, community-centered ways. Copper Shores is committed to serving all members of the community, including those for whom faith is important. For many, religion provides a sense of connection and community – important factors in preventing suicide.

“Religion is a point of trauma for many people, which has historically created a divide between faith communities and nonprofit communities,” said Kristine Martens, Copper Shores Outreach & Education program director. “For people whose faith is important to them, they feel a disservice when it’s not incorporated into public services like mental health training. Soul Shop bridges this gap.”

Soul Shop was developed in by Fe Anam Avis, a paster with a passion for suicide prevention, who noticed that the trainings he hosted did not attract faith-based community members. In an effort to draw in faith leaders, educators and active congregation members, Avis created a suicide prevention training that shows the messiness of humanity embraced within scriptures, highlighting that many of the activities of a church are really prevention work.

Registration
Registration closes at the end of the day on Wednesday, June 25. Register for free and learn more about Soul Shop at coppershores.org/soul-shop. To learn more about Copper Shores Outreach & Education, visit coppershores.org/outreach-and-education.
