Waldorf School presents “A Christmas Memory” at Old Town Pasadena

by TImothy Rutt

The Pasadena Waldorf School will sponsor a stage adaptation of Truman Capote’s “A Christmas Memory” on December 13 and 14 in Old Town Pasadena.

Tickets are now on sale for the event, which is open to the public, for a suggested donation of $25.  Last year’s performance garnered high praise for the cast featuring acclaimed actors Andrew Heffernan and Jill Parker-Jones, accompanied by Adam Wilner on guitar.  As an attendee from last year’s performance reported, “The masterful, captivating acting and perfect musical seasoning kept the entire audience mesmerized, and many reached for a tissue at the tender ending. I hope everyone will seize this not-to-be-missed opportunity.”

Directed for the stage by Stephanie Wing-Garcia, the play will be performed at 8 PM Friday, Dec. 13, and 2 PM and 8 PM on Saturday, December 14.  The performance will be held at the Rudolph Steiner Community Center, 110 Martin Alley in Old Town Pasadena.  For tickets and more information, please visit www.pasadenawaldorf.org.
