How about going to a holiday play right here in our neighborhood?
Kristin from Wu Hsing Tao School of Acupuncture sent us an email inviting everyone to their holiday play “A Child’s Christmas in Wales” by Dylan Thomas on December 18 and 19 at 8pm.
"Now you may be thinking, why is an acupuncture school doing a holiday play? The reason is because throughout our school’s acupuncture program, the arts are incorporated throughout each student’s education. Using art as a way to heal helps to refine each student’s compassion and awareness to become a sensitive and successful acupuncture practitioner.
We also chose the play because it is a famous Christmas story about community.
We would like to embrace and share what we are doing with our Laurelhurst community," Kristin tells us.
And get this - the students, staff, and faculty from the Acupuncture school will be the main cast of actors.
The School’s Academic Dean and Director of the play, is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London, where she received Shakespearean training. The School’s Clinic Supervisor trained at the American Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco and has been doing theatre and acting for over 30 years. The School’s Librarian has directed and produced Reader’s Theatre productions for youth for 8 years and has had a life long interest in theatre.
"This simple, poetic tale captures a child's eye-view and an adult's warm remembrance of the time of presents, good things to eat, and newly-fallen snow. This is a modern classic story which has enchanted both young and old. Live music and singing will be incorporated in the performance," the website says.
Doors open at 7:00pm for the two performances. Desserts, wine, refreshments, and savory delights will be available. The suggested donation is $20. RSVP is requested.
