For many, a grandmother is a loving symbol of hugs, cookies and seasonally appropriate cards with $5 bills in them. It's really no wonder why these women foster more love and respect than any elected official. Reflect on memories of matriarchs tonight at the world premiere of the theatrical production
Stories My Grandmother Told Me at the American Heartland Theatre in Crown Center (2450 Grand). Set in the modern American South, the play tells the story of a young man's relationship with his aging grandmother and how their everyday interactions shape him from childhood into adulthood. The story was adapted from short stories by Ted Swindley, creator of
Always ... Patsy Cline. The show begins at 8 p.m. Children younger than 6 are not admitted. Tickets cost $15 for students, $30 for adults, and $26 for seniors 60 and older. For tickets and more information, call 816-842-9999 or see
