Avery’s Rest Live!!, Archaeological Dig, Rehoboth Beach Historical Society, Rehoboth Beach Museum, Clear Space Theatre Company, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, Delaware Beaches, Saturday and Sunday
Back on April 23rd I wrote a post on Avery’s Rest, John & Sarah Avery, a 17th Century Family in Delaware’s Frontier. If you would like to see that post please click on the month of April, under Archives, on the left hand side of my site and scroll down to the 23rd.
I am reminding you of this post because this week-end, the Clear Space Theatre Company joins forces with the Rehoboth Beach Museum to bring one of its exhibits to life.
“Captain John and Sarah Avery: A 17th Century Family on Delaware’s Frontier”. The actors will take on the roles of this real-life family.
Using artifacts as a point of reference, the exhibit examines the shifting economic and cultural traditions of English and Dutch colonists, and their interation with Native American communites, illuminating the joys and hardships of daily life in Sussex County in the late 1600s and early 1700s.
The actors will take on the responsibility of guiding visitors through this colonial experience, with character monologues. These performers will be stationed throughout the museum and will perform for each group of visitors as they are led through the exhibit.
Admission is by donation only. Times? Both days from 1:00 p.m. until 5:00 p.m.
Location? Rehoboth Beach Museum located at 511 Rehoboth Ave., by the roundabout. For more information, please call 302-227-7310.
