A Living History of Wistariahurst, a site-based theatre performance
about the life of William Skinner, his family, and some of their
more outspoken servants. Set in the 1920s, the production by
Enchanted Circle Theater and Wistariahurst reveals how the privileged
and the working class lived together under one roof. The production,
based on letters, photographs, and oral histories, is part of
the Massachusetts International Festival of the Arts (MIFA).

of September 17–19, September 25–26, and October
