SAUGUS — Actress Sheryl Fae is returning to the Saugus Public Library; this time as Abigail Adams May 10, at 2 p.m. in the Community Room.
Abigail Adams’s life is one of the most documented of the first ladies: She is remembered for the many letters she wrote to her husband while he stayed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, during the Continental Congresses. John frequently sought the advice of Abigail on many matters, and their letters are filled with intellectual discussions on government and politics. In one of her more famous letters she implores her husband and his colleagues, all of whom were male, to, “…remember the ladies…If particular care and attention is not paid to the Ladies we are determined to foment a Rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation.” Her letters also serve as eyewitness accounts of the American Revolutionary War home front.
This story starts off as an adult and goes back through her childhood and then back to an adult again. This show is suitable for ages 12 and up through adults. Music & Sound design by Scooter Perrotta from LA Soundtrack. Sheryl Fae attended Emerson College in Boston, graduating with honors and receiving a BFA in Acting.
Since 2003, she has masterfully brought to life important historical women to both adults and children around the world. In her one-woman shows, she immerses the audience in a multimedia learning experience that captivates viewers and sparks their interest to explore more.
