SUMMARY:Concord250 Event: Where We Belong\, New England Premiere!
DESCRIPTION:For MA250 The Umbrella has programmed two events – a stage company production and an exhibit – to celebrate and amplify voices that have not historically been a part of the revolution story…which is in line with the celebration goals of the 250 plans. \nAn indigenous theatre-maker journeys across geographic borders\, personal history\, and Cultural legacies in search of a place to belong. \nIn 2015\, Mohegan theatre-maker Madeline Sayet traveled to England to pursue a PhD in Shakespeare\, echoing the path her ancestors took in the 1700’s and leading to a remarkable journey of self-discovery. This ground-breaking\, one-woman event weaves together humor\, searing insight\, and the timeless power of story-telling\, to explore the importance of honoring our roots and the universal quest for belonging/where we belong. \nFollowing its acclaimed tour\, developed in partnership with Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company in association with The Folger Shakespeare Library\, with performances at Seattle Rep\, Chicago’s Goodman Theatre\, New York’s Public Theater\, and more\, The Umbrella is proud to present the play’s New England Premiere in a new production. \nUmbrella Arts\, Black Box Theater \nBy Madeline Sayet\, Directed by Tara Moses \nRuns February 28- March 23\, 2025

SUMMARY:Westford REV 250: A Revolution of Her Own! Deborah Sampson\, the first woman to fight the American Military
DESCRIPTION:Deborah Sampson\, the first woman to enlist\, fight\, and be honorably discharged from the American Military\, captivates audiences in an hour-long program chronicling her life. An indentured servant by age five\, Deborah grew up in a man’s world\, where women were naught but second-class citizens. Without the ability to vote or to own property\, Deborah knew her options were limited; breaking the rules may be necessary to accomplish a greater goal in life. As a self-educated masterless woman\, she felt a higher calling\, and in the final years of the American Revolution\, Deborah bound her chest. tied back her hair and enlisted in the 4th Massachusetts Regiment of the Continental Army\, as “Robert Shurtlieff.” The American Heroine takes you back in time! \nHistory At Play (HAP) was founded in 2010 by Artistic Director Judith “Jude” Kalaora to chronicle the lives of influential and often forgotten women. Offering solo and ensemble immersive living history productions\, HAP is woman-owned and operated and committed to employing artists from the region. Kalaora is a professional educator\, writer\, and living historian. She graduated from Syracuse University and attended the Globe Education Program of Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre of London\, England. \nSuggested Donation: $10 per person \nYour contribution supports preserving and maintaining artifacts in the Westford Museum collection. Thank you for your support of the Westford Museum.
