Grandma Stories

In this poignant and sharply funny solo performance, Choctaw playwright and theatremaker Randy Reinholz invites us into a memory-play that bends time like memory itself. Reinholz’s self-effacing narrator, caught in the glittering but hollow glow of Hollywood, turns inward to unravel the stories from his youth that shaped him. Embodying over 20 characters, what begins in the raw grit of Native American life—poverty, relocation, dog bites, and identity confusion—evolves into a charming theatrical journey of resilience, humor, and transformation. With a storyteller’s wit and an artist’s craft, Reinholz transforms trauma into art, pain into laughter, and personal history into a shared experience. GRANDMA STORIES is an evening of intimate, funny, and deeply human storytelling.
