by Truman Capote
Adapted by Ira David Wood III
December 19 - 21, 2008
Performance Times: December 19 & 20 @ 8pm; December 20 & 21 @ 3pm

For over a quarter of a century, Ira David Wood has touched the hearts of thousands with his heartwarming and deeply moving one-man production of Truman Capote's A Christmas Memory. It's truly one of the most meaningful holiday experiences you'll have this year. One of the Southeast's finest actors will sweep you along on a journey into your own memories of what it truly means to be a child at Christmas.
Until he was 10 years old, Truman Capote lived with a family of distant and elderly cousins in a small town in rural Alabama. A Christmas Memory is a frankly autobiographical story about those years and especially his relationship with one of the cousins, Miss Sook Faulk. In Wood's hands, the narrative becomes absolutely mesmerizing. You'll share laughter in generous amounts, but as the lights finally fade to black, there won't be a dry eye in the house. The production is a "must-see" for anyone in need of a little Christmas spirit!
Hot cider and fruitcake are served in our lobby prior to each performance. This is a show that you'll want to share with every member of your family. Advance reservations are strongly advised.
