The evening will feature dramatic encounters with Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear, Victorian masters of nonsense. Burnham presents an outline of the life and works of the Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (Lewis Carroll), the author of the Alice books, and of Edward Lear, the 'dirty landscape painter and writer of bosh.'

In 1865, the Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson’s hand-written and illustrated Alice’s Adventures Underground (that he had given to Alice Liddell, as a souvenir of a boating trip taken two years earlier) was first published as Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland under his nom de plume of Lewis Carroll. Discover how a stuffy Oxford mathematician and gifted pioneer photographer created a childhood classic ‘all in a golden afternoon’ on a river jaunt with a college colleague and the three Liddell sisters.

White Knight...Shoes Too Tight

Welcome to the Renaissance and the outrageous, crowd-pleasing musical farce, Something Rotten. Created by Grammy Award-winning songwriter Wayne Kirkpatrick, and successful screenwriters Karey Kirkpatrick and John O’Farrell, Something Rotten was lauded by audience members and critics alike, receiving several Best Musical nominations and hailed by Time Out New York as "the funniest musical comedy in at least 400 years".
Set in the 1590s, brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate to write a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of that Renaissance rock star known as "The Bard." When a local soothsayer foretells that the future of theatre involves singing, dancing and acting at the same time, Nick and Nigel set out to write the world’s very first musical. But amidst the scandalous excitement of opening night, the Bottom Brothers realize that reaching the top means being true to thine own self, and all that jazz.


Something Rotten

Playwright Heidi Schreck’s boundary-breaking play breathes new life into our Constitution and imagines how it will shape the next generation of Americans. Heidi earned her college tuition by winning Constitutional debate competitions across the United States.
In this play, she resurrects her 15-year-old teenage self in order to trace the profound relationship between four generations of women and the founding document that shaped their lives.
