Wander the bluffs of Cape Cod, Massachusetts and you might hear whispers of the ghost of Maria “Goody” Hallet, calling for (or cursing) her lover, “Black Sam Bellamy”. Come hear their tale...this is not your average 'happily ever after'!
Part legend, part history, Rona brings a slice of Puritan New England to life through story-theater. Based in the early 1700's, it addresses universal themes, gang mentality of the masses, hypocrisy ... and resilience. Rona embodies 15 character without the use of costumes, props or sets!
For ages 16 and up.
