Bay Theatre "Belle of Amherst" Mar 30, 2012 Poetess Emily Dickinson was pert and unpredictable and William Luce's biographical drama engages us as it allows Dickinson to reveal herself as a strong individualist who laments "those poor village ladies, with their dimity convictions." She tells her tutor, "We shall read everything, naughty words and all."
Life is Dickinson's subject, crystallized by the playwright into"...a love affair with language, a celebration of all that is beautiful and poignant. Not a recitation or a reading, but a well-rounded work of theatre, this play will entertain with its wit and its whimsy.
For show times please visit our website at www.baytheatre.org or call 410.268.1333.
