Two heartwarming journeys into the foibles of the holiday season are adapted for the stage when Underground Railway Theater.

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.
