Here w the brilliant Myka Plunkett who played Lydia Maria Child in @patrickgabridge's play last night. As @MarcusRediker knows, to see someone you've spent years writing about embodied theatrically: amazing. Did I almost weep? Yes. Did I give Myka a copy of my book? Oh yes.

Starting 8/24 in Northampton MA: @patrickgabridge's wonderful play about David and Lydia Maria Child grappling with how best to fight for their abolitionist beliefs while also keeping their marriage together. Can't wait to see LMC in the flesh, as it were! historicnorthampton.org/pull…

I saw “Revolution’s Edge” last night. It was a triumph and I heartily recommend it to anyone interested in the revolutionary period of American (and British) history. Bravo, @OldNorth1723! 🇬🇧🇺🇸 The show runs to mid-September. Get your tickets here! 👉 oldnorth.com/revolutions-edg…
On this day in 1976, Queen Elizabeth visited Old North Church in celebration of the Bicentennial. Today, the British Consul-General in New England and other members of the British community in Boston will come to Old North to watch the original play “Revolution’s Edge.”

Early in his acting career, Nathan Johnson promised himself that he would never play an enslaved person. However, when he read an excerpt from “Revolution’s Edge,” he decided to make an exception. Listen to an interview with Nathan on @RadioBoston: wbur.org/radioboston/2023/06…

What happens when people who are bound together by faith and family are driven apart by politics? That's what the new play Revolution's Edge explores, as you can find out in our new interview with playright Patrick Gabridge. Listen now! hubhistory.com/episodes/revo…

Just posted the results of a survey looking at submission & production activity Playwright Submission Binge members. It's an interesting look at the writing numbers for 110 playwrights who responded. (Yes, I like numbers.) writinglife3.blogspot.com/20…
