surroundings and life experiences. Meet Catherine Dickens, as recreated by
Jessica Michna, his long suffering wife and mother of ten children. In this
first person monologue, Mrs. Dickens will give the audience an unflinching
look into the lives of this couple and introduce the audience to such women
as; Nancy from "Oliver Twist," Miss Havishsham from "Great Expectations,"
Betsey Trotwood from David Copperfield and others.
Ms Michna will appear in a period appropriate costume and will take
questions from the audience following the presentation.
Come and enjoy.
