ABOUT THE SHOW
A world premiere of epic proportions, this play brings to life the infamous Gloucester Sea Serpent, the unheard-of Ghost Army fought off by Ebenezer Babson, and the secrets from the Witches of Dogtown.
Employing projections and puppetry to tell these larger-than-life fish tales, audiences will revel in the magic of Gloucester’s oral history.
In celebration of Gloucester’s 400+ Celebration, Gloucester Stage has commissioned local playwright John Minigan ("Sleepy Hollow," "Queen of Sad Mischance," "Noir Hamlet") to write "TALL TALES FROM BLACKBURN TAVERN" based on folklore from Gloucester’s 400-year history.
Directed by award-winning director, educator, actor, and producer Bryn Boice.
