Christmas Guests

December 21, 2017

Guest host Robert Sean Leonard presents three stories for the holidays.  In “One Christmas,” Truman Capote visits the father he hardly knew.  John Shea is the reader.  Grace Paley imagines what happens when a Jewish schoolgirl with “The Loudest Voice” is cast in the Christmas play; Linda Lavin reads.  And Isaiah Sheffer reads James Thurber’s re-imagining of a famous poem, “A Visit from St. Nicholas,” in the style of Ernest Hemingway.
