Let's Go See... Birthday Candles
Details
Let's go see the first play of 2026 at Wheaton Drama.
"In this poetic and profound play, we meet Ernestine Ashworth on her 17th birthday and stay with her as she celebrates birthdays across nine decades—all while baking the same cake. As time passes around her, Ernestine wrestles with life, love, loss, and legacy, wondering if her life will ever be extraordinary. With a tender mix of humor and poignancy, Birthday Candles invites audiences to reflect on the rituals that define us, the memories that shape us, and the beauty in every ordinary moment."
The play starts at 7:30pm but we will get there a little earlier to find our seats.
