Alden Theatre

Ever wonder how others perceive you? “Seinfeld” writer Pat Hazell goes in search of his own “Permanent Record” in a confessional night at The Alden Theatre filled with humor, heart and humanity. Hazell hired an actual opposition research company to investigate his past, and he is now forced to define himself. Pat opens the vault to his faults, foibles and foul play to turn a stroll down Memory Lane into a high-speed chase down Memory Highway. If you can’t laugh at yourself, why not laugh at him? Saturday, May 9, 7 p.m. (ASL interpreted) $30 Standard/$25 Seniors/$20 MCC district residents.
