Whallonsburg Grange Lyceum Presents

Join us for a special sneak-peek performance of The Ghost of Mary Persons.

This one-person show, performed by Frieda Toth, is inspired by the real life of Mary Melissa Persons, who got revenge from the grave on everyone who had ever looked down on her.

Mary Persons was the common-law wife of Jones Ordway, a prosperous Adirondack lumberman. A feisty, hardworking woman, who enjoyed the life she chose, but was scorned by her family and neighbors for her unusual living situation but ended up getting the last laugh.

The performance features live music by Frank Orsini and Dan Hubbs, celebrated for their Adirondack sound.

Please note that this show contains adult themes and is not suitable for young children, though teens are welcome.

This program is free for Chapman Museum Members or $10 for non-members. Payment is required at the time of registration. Space is limited.

To register, call (518) 793-2826.

Adirondack Center for Writing presents

Join us for a reading from Casey Mulligan Walsh’s new memoir, The Full Catastrophe, about her orphaned adolescence, her divorce, and the loss of her young adult son. 

The book is as wrenching as it is healing, so we’re inviting attendees to bring their own story, essay, or poem focused on life’s hardest moments. 

If you’re looking for a space to connect and share sensitive reflections on loss, tragedy, hardship, or any of life’s unexpected downturns, you belong here. If you’re looking for wisdom and strength from others but you’re not ready to get up and tell your own story, you belong here too. A book sale and signing will follow the readings.

RSVP HERE to reserve a seat.
