AHS Presents That’s Not How I Remember It Nov. 7-8 at Central Office

Public performances are scheduled Friday, Nov. 7 at 7 p.m.; and Saturday, Nov. 8 at 2 and 7 p.m. All will be at the Auburn Public Schools (APS) Central Office auditorium at 1713 J St. in Auburn. Admission will be $8 adults and $5 students. 
In this production, Mom and Dad love to tell the story of how they met in 1986--“pretty much the most awesome year ever.” Trouble is, they remember their courtship completely differently. Mom’s version makes their meeting sound like a sappy romantic comedy while Dad somehow makes himself the star of a karate battle. This one-act play is a crazy homage to bad 1980s movies and the inadequacies of memory.  It is a high-energy, comedic performance with lots of great music!
