New Frontier Theatre Company presents an Actor's Workshop production of the "Oldest Living Confederate Widow: Her Confession" – by Allan Garganus and Jane Holding for two weekends only at the COS Black Box Theatre.  A presentation of drama in one (1) Act.

“Oldest Living Confederate Widow” -  Lucille is 15 when she is married to Captain William More Marsden, a 50-year-old Civil War veteran.  The connection is deep and strong, but the 40-year marriage calls on every reserve of patience, tolerance, ingenuity, compassion and strength at her disposal.  As the last surviving veteran of that war, Capt. Marsden has been interviewed many times and has endlessly told his stories to the press and to Lucy and their nine children.  This is the first time Lucille, now 99, a born storyteller has been asked to tell her story.  In its telling she reveals the secret she’s kept for nearly half a century.  Her story is laced with humor, pathos and an extraordinary richness of language, all based on a foundation of love.  It will surprise you.

 

Running Time: 1 hour 10 Minutes.  No intermission.  For Mature Audiences. 

 



We look forward to seeing you at the event.

 

Sincerely,

 

New Frontier Theatre Company
