Aurora
by Amy Abrigo
Jan. 15
Thursday
Join us for a FREE public reading of Aurora, a new one-woman show written and performed by Amy Abrigo.Aurora is a deeply personal work inspired by Amy’s grandmother and her journey with Alzheimer’s. Through memory, storytelling, and love, the play explores the stories we carry — and what happens when they begin to slip away.
This reading takes place on January 15, 2026 — Aurora’s birthday, 90 years to the day after she was born. It is both a celebration of her life and a reflection on memory, legacy, and the people who shape us. “This story is about my grandmother — but it’s also about memory, and all the stories we hold inside us that are erased when we are gone. The play is called Aurora, named for her. We will be reading it on her birthday. I hope you will join us.”
— Amy Abrigo
