Transport yourself 150 years into the past! This moving, original production uses actual writings from residents of Framingham and New England to give you a sense of what YOUR life would have been like had you lived here 150 years ago. Thirty local actors and re-enactors will bring over 40 voices from the past to life in a powerful performance that features a live Civil War Camp Band.
Guests are encouraged to enhance their theatre experience by first visiting the Framingham's Civil War memorial and first free standing library - the Edgell Memorial Library next door. The Framingham History Center recently installed a mini-exhibit featuring a number of Civil War-era artifacts with Framingham provenance, including General George H. Gordon's great coat and marble bust by Daniel Chester French. The Edgell Memorial Library, 3 Oak St., Framingham is open Wednesday - Saturday, 1-4 pm and admission is $5/person, free for members/students.
Theatre Ticket Prices:
$15/adult, $12/youth-senior (18 and younger, 65 or older)
A discount of $2.00 per ticket is available when purchased at http://ourcivilwarstory.eventbrite.com by April 26th. Use code: EarlyBird. Tickets may be purchased at the Edgell Library at the regular price during open hours up until Friday, May 3rd.
This production is made possible through the generous support of Impact Framingham and in collaboration with the Framingham History Center.
* please note that Historic Village Hall is not handicapped-accessible. We're working on changing that!
