Betty Campbell and Patrick Lennon are pleased to present their fourth annual holiday reading of Truman Capote’s A Christmas Memory, directed by Julie Beckman, this Sunday evening at 18th and Union, at 6:00 pm.

A Christmas Memory is the story of seven-year-old Buddy and an elderly woman who is his distant cousin and best friend. The story captures the simple joys of the Christmas season and the inevitable heartbreak of growing up. This autobiographical short story from 1956 is a holiday classic and one of Capote’s most beloved works.
