SUMMARY:Paul Revere's Ride: The Truth Behind the Tavern-Keeper's Tales
DESCRIPTION:Featuring a dramatic recitation of the Longfellow poem “The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere”\, this timely America 250 program will also discuss the historical background on the Lexington Alarm & the riders who carried it\, and a review of the Romance that the Revolution inspired as it neared its 19th century Centennial – some of which colours our own perception to this day. Presented in period attire appropriate to the publication date of the poem (1863)\, it also involves a PowerPoint to illustrate the historical context. \nAbout the presenter:\nA member of the Dirty Blue Shirts\, an experiential history collective of living historians\, scholars\, and artists based from Eastern Connecticut\, Nathan Rumney is an actor\, director\, playwright\, and producer with over seventy theatrical productions under his belt over the course of his nearly two decades in the field. His inherent penchant for the natural sciences\, love of mythology\, and plunges into philosophy have greatly influenced his previous and current roles in portraying living history. He derives his greatest joy from bringing education and entertainment together for the enjoyment and benefit of audiences of all ages!
