The Friends of the Thomaston Library Present:

The Belle of Amherst

Thomaston Academy Building rm. 208

Julie Harris reprises her Tony Award-winning Broadway role as 19th century American poet Emily Dickinson in this one woman interpretation of the great literary figure's life. Against the backdrop of Dickinson's 19th century Amherst, Mass., home, Harris declaims from the reclusive poet's poems, letters and diaries to offer a delicate portrait of the artist as both a real human being and long-suffering genius.

Doors and 211 Bookshop open at 6:00. Popcorn will be served and admission, as always, is free. For more information, call the library at (207) 354-2453.
