“Nature: A Walking Play” Returns To The Trustees
An immersive and family-friendly telling of Emerson, Thoreau and their mutual love of the natural world returns to The Trustees! The Trustees and TigerLion Arts present this event to celebrate the connection between humanity and nature, with the opportunity to view the play in an outdoor setting.
Become part of the play as you walk alongside the actors as the play’s scenes unfold throughout the property. Performances are filled with music, song, story and celebration as scenes are showcased throughout the event. The play will be taking place in three locations throughout the summer and will run until October 2021.
The tour starts at Fruitlands Museum in Harvard, MA at the site of a commune founded in 1843 by Brinson Alcott. Alcott appears as a character in the play, along with Charles Lane. Next, go over to Appleton Farms in Ipswich to one of the country’s oldest continuously operating farms to visit the grasslands, livestock, stone walls, crops and old farm buildings. Lastly, the tour ends in Walpole with performances at Francis William Bird Park. Open fields lined by tree groves, winding pathways, stone bridges and a trio of ponds make this a memorable spot.
Member tickets are $36 for adults and $16 for children. Nonmember tickets are $45 for adults and $20 for children (children under 5 are free). Look at the locations below and buy tickets for the place you want to visit!
