Lace Curtain Irish feat. Katie Migdal

  • Jesup Memorial Library 34 Mt. Desert Street Bar Harbor, Maine 04609 (map)

On Thursday, February 5th, Katie Migdal will perform Carolyn Gage’s one-act play Lace Curtain Irish and host a fascinating talk-back, exploring issues raised in the piece.

Thirty-five years after the infamous Fall River axe murders, an Irish woman, working in her kitchen in Anaconda, Montana, opens a newspaper to read about the death of the alleged murderer, Lizzie Borden. The woman is Bridget Sullivan, the Bordens’ former maid. A gripping, solo, one-act that turns history on its head!
