What is "tuesdays with Morrie?"

It's actually a book that was written by Mitch, which describes a very special friendship that he rekindled with a former professor, as the book explains:

Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher, or a colleague. Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching, helped you see the world as a more profound place, gave you sound advice to help you make your way through it. For Mitch Albom, that person was Morrie Schwartz, his college professor from nearly twenty years ago. He rediscovered Morrie in the last months of the older man’s life. Their rekindled relationship turned into one final “class”: lessons in how to live.
This play is actually making its Michigan debut in Wharton, then Kalamazoo, as this is the first time it has been shown in the state. Considering Albom is a Michigan guy, that's a pretty sweet honor for him to kick it off here.
