| About This Production: |
|
A
FLURRY OF BIRDS was given its premiere performance on April
19, 1975 at 51 Walden Street, Concord , Mass. in a building which a
few hours before had been permanently ddicated by the 1975 Celebrations
Committee "to the cultural heritage of Concord." Betsy Connelly,
President of the Players during 1974-75 wrote:
|
|
"We commemorate a battle; but more significantly we commemorate the overt emergence of a spirit that had been maturing since the earliest days of colonial America -- a spirit nurtured by the challenging environment -- a spirit of liberty that motivated the people of this new country to risk their lives and lands to preserve and ultimately to expand their cherished freedom. This readiness to accept a challenge still lives on today. The Concord Players' response to this play has been typical of its long tradition. Our members, old, young, and middle-aged alike, have rallied together to give you the best we have to offer in the spirit of Concord. With great honor and humility, we present A FLURRY OF BIRDS." |
