Details: |
Joyful and rich with humor, both stories are set in the 1930s and told from the point of view of children – one a girl from the Bronx, the other a boy from Alabama. Grace Paley’s The Loudest Voice takes us to a Russian Jewish immigrant school where “without shame” gentile teachers annually stage the Nativity. Shirley, a bright young Jewish girl is asked to narrate the play due to her loud clear voice. In A Christmas Memory, Truman Capote recalls his close friendship with another social outcast, his wildly eccentric older cousin, and their holiday tradition of making fruitcakes. This nostalgic tale of a shared understanding and love evokes the simple joys and sorrows of the holidays. Director Wesley Savick crafts the perfect holiday alternative with an intergenerational cast, pageantry, and music. |
