One Person Theater: The Story of the Orphan Train

Sunday, October 18, 2009
3:00 p.m. at Saint Benedict Center
This performace tells true stories of seven brave young Orphan Train riders from their East Coast beginnings to their new lives in other parts of the country.  Orphans who remember the experience come to life and share a heartrending and forgotten part of American history.  Pippa White calls her unique, captivating, and touching productions “part theater, part storytelling, part history.”  She has extensive background in theater and television on the West Coast, including five years as a host of a daily morning television on ABC in San Francisco.

Tickets are $7 (advanced purchase, seniors, and students) and $9 (at the door).  For more information, please contact Saint Benedict Center at (402) 352-8819.
