About the Traveling Literary Theater
From the chilling tales of Edgar Allan Poe to the vivid storytelling of Charles Dickens, the words of Martha Washington, heartfelt letters from World War II, era-defining songs, and stirring lectures by Ulysses S. Grant — our performances illuminate the voices of the past and connect them to audiences today. Step into a world where literature breathes, history speaks, and timeless stories unfold on stage.
Prior to the program, we invite our Fellows Members to enjoy Happy Hour from 5:00 – 6:00 pm, downstairs in the Dr. Suzan D. Boyd Fellows Club Lounge.
