Bringing the Story of Freedom to Life: Tammy Denease’s One-Woman Performance as Elizabeth “Mumbet” Freeman
Join us as we commemorate Juneteenth with a special performance by Tammy Denease of Hidden Women Stage Company.
An accomplished performing artist, storyteller, actor, and playwright, Tammy Denease specializes in bringing to life the lives of very important, yet “hidden” women in history. Denease will offer her one-woman theatrical performance as Elizabeth Freeman, the first enslaved African American to file and win a freedom suit in Massachusetts. At the end of the performance, there will be ample time to for conversation with the artist.
Included with general admission.
