Revolutionary Tea on a Gambrel Roof

September 17, 2025 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
FREE

A creative theatrical presentation based on a circa 1875 local poem by Lucy Larcom about the historic Danvers Jeremiah Page House. Period music, and an art installation add to the illustration of the story: When the British monarchy started taxing tea in the colonies, Jeremiah told Sarah that “no tea shall be drunk in this house”. However, in Sarah’s words, “Upon a house is not within it”. There will be a Q&A session after the production.

Please arrive 10 minutes before the start time; the program will start promptly at 7:00pm.

This event is part of the FREE Trails & Sails event series by Essex Heritage
