The Garden of Ideas in Ridgefield will present a live performance by actress Khristee Rich on Wednesday, July 8 from 12:30 to 2pm, as part of their popular Garden Lunch: Feed the Body, Expand the Mind series.
Khristee Rich, a character actress, comedienne and writer now residing in Los Angeles, will present a brief reading from her new play, “Afro-Fabulous!” along with a short story which inspired the play. This one-women show is based on Khristee’s life growing up in Ridgefield and all of the hair drama she experienced on her way to pursuing a professional acting career. Khristee’s motto is to spread joy and laughter in this delightful sneak peer of her new show before it becomes a full staged production.
