A Christmas Memory
by Alchemy Theatre Company
Dec. 11 - Dec. 21
“It’s fruitcake weather!”
The Alchemy Theatre once again brings their holiday presentation of Truman Capote’s beloved short story A CHRISTMAS MEMORY as a staged reading. Originally published in 1956, this poignant, heart-felt, modern day classic gently captures Mr. Capote’s richly detailed memories of his Depression-era, rural Alabama boyhood with his best friend – an eccentric, 60-something distant cousin with whom he baked fruitcakes each Christmas.
The affecting simplicity of TRUMAN CAPOTE’S A CHRISTMAS MEMORY speaks even louder today, making us realize just how chaotic our lives can be if we don’t hold on to some tether of family, love and tradition.
