Didi Conn, Loretta Swit and Maria Tucci are among the actresses who will join the rotating lineup of Nora and Delia Ephron's Love, Loss, and What I Wore Off-Broadway in the coming months.

The Oct. 6-31 cast will feature the previously-announced Tovah Feldshuh (Golda's Balcony, Irena's Vow), as well as Barbara Feldon ("Get Smart"), Aisha de Haas (Caroline, Or Change) and Ashley Austin Morris (Die Mommie Die).

From Nov. 3-Dec. 5, Love, Loss will welcome Tucci (Mary Stuart), Tichina Arnold (“Everybody Hates Chris”) and Alicia Goranson ("Roseanne").

Actresses lined-up to appear this winter include Conn ("Grease"), Swit ("M*A*S*H*"), Sabrina Le Beauf ("The Cosby Show") and Kate Flannery ("The Office").

Karen Carpenter directs the production based on Ilene Beckerman's book of the same name that "uses clothing and accessories and the memories they trigger to tell funny and often poignant stories that all women can relate to."

The design team includes Jo Winiarski (scenic design), Jessica Jahn (costume design), Jeff Croiter (lighting design), Walter Trarbach (sound design) and Maria Verel (make-up design).

Carpenter also directed the Monday night readings of Love, Loss, and What I Wore that were presented this past winter and spring as a benefit for Dress for Success. A portion of the proceeds from the current run benefits Dress for Success.
