LEXINGTON — From Saturday Night Live to Lexington’s Patriots’ Day Parade.
Actress, comedian and writer Rachel Dratch, a Lexington native and SNL alum, is set to return to town this weekend for the 250th anniversary commemoration of the Battle of Lexington and the start of the American Revolution.
Dratch will host the Patriots’ Day Awards Ceremony on Thursday night and also march in the Patriots’ Day Parade on Saturday.
She recently caught up with Jeff Saperstone, an anchor for NBC Boston, Lex250’s official media partner, to preview the week ahead.
“I’ll start practicing my parade wave,” Dratch said. “It’s an honor. Like I said, I love Massachusetts, New England, Lexington. You know, it’s in my roots.”
