Truman Capote's The Thanksgiving Visitor

Southampton Arts Center

"The Thanksgiving Visitor" is a poignant one-act play by Truman Capote, based on his own childhood experiences. It revolves around the character of young Buddy, who is excited yet apprehensive about the arrival of his intimidating schoolmate, the formidable and troublesome Odd Henderson. The story unfolds during the Thanksgiving holiday as Buddy's loving, eccentric Aunt Sook prepares for the festive gathering.

The play explores themes of friendship, bullying, and the bittersweet nature of growing up. Ultimately, it captures the warmth of family bonds and the challenges of childhood, culminating in a touching and reflective moment that highlights the power of compassion and understanding.
