Why the Chimes Rang

€œWhy the Chimes Rang: A Play in one Act € is a timeless Christmas drama celebrating the spirit of generosity and the true meaning of the holiday season. Originally a short story by Raymond Macdonald Alden, this adaptation by Elizabeth Apthorp McFadden brings the heartwarming tale to the stage.

The play tells the story of two young brothers, Pedro and Wilhelm, who journey to a grand cathedral on Christmas Eve hoping to contribute their small coin to the church's offering and hear the legendary chimes ring out. However, along their path, they encounter someone in greater need, and Pedro makes a selfless decision that leads to a miraculous and inspiring conclusion. This simple yet profound narrative explores themes of compassion, sacrifice, and the idea that the smallest acts of kindness can create the greatest impact.
