Description

A creative theatrical presentation based on a circa 1875 local poem by Lucy Larcom about the historic Danvers Jeremiah Page House. Period music, and an art installation add to the illustration of the story: When the British monarchy started taxing tea in the colonies, Jeremiah told Sarah that “no tea shall be drunk in this house”. However, in Sarah’s words, “Upon a house is not within it”. There will be a Q&A session after the production.
