The Belle of Amherst

September 17-28
A Drama by William Luce Starring Lindsay Crouse. Production Originally Presented at the Gloucester Stage Company

In the Tony Award-Winning The Belle of Amherst William Luce draws heavily on the poems, letters and first hand accounts of Emily Dickinson to sculpt a one-woman play that is an inspiring, poignant and truthful biography of one of America’s greatest literary women. Through scintillating weavings of poetry, letters, dramatic flashbacks and narrative, we are transported to the people and events that shaped her secluded life. Academy Award nominee, Lindsay Crouse, brings this production originally presented at the Gloucester Stage Company to Peterborough prior to a New York run.
