Civil War Through the Eyes of Loudoun County Women

 

In this unique program, narration provides a backdrop for dramatic monologues by actors in period costume. Excerpted from diaries, letters and other documents, performers interrupt the narration to tell their own stories, representing, among others, a Confederate spy, a plantation mistress, a slave woman, a Quaker journalist and a conflicted housewife.
