Short Stories Live: Christmas Classics
Town Hall Seattle Seattle, WA
In a holiday celebration of literature and theater, professional actors from A Contemporary Theatre will read excerpts from Christmas classics. Frank Corrado will reprise "Ryder Nails the Cleveland Street Kid" by Jean Shepherd, whose short stories inspired the classic holiday film A Christmas Story; Julie Briskman will read Nathan Englander's "Reb Kringle," a comic tale about a Jewish man who works as a department-store Santa; and Jean Sherrard will take on Truman Capotes largely autobiographical "A Christmas Memory." The program is directed by Sherrard, and features a special appearance by Paul Dorpat reading Thurbers "'Twas The Night Before Christmas,' cheekily rendered in the style of Hemingway. Presented by Town Hall with A Contemporary Theatre.
