REJOICE! - Holiday Presentation To Be Staged at Wicomico Library
November 14, 2009

The holiday season will be ushered in at the Wicomico Regional Library on November 14 at 2 PM by a dramatic presentation that depicts the 1661 gathering of Somerset settlers to celebrate their first Christmas in Maryland.

These colonists, drawn to Maryland by Lord Baltimore’s Religious Toleration Act, left their new settlements to gather on the banks of the Manokin River to give thanks and to celebrate. The drama is called Rejoice!

Author Jeanne du Nord wrote the 30-minute script based on research she did for her most recent book Makepeace, that chronicles the era. There will be a projected storyboard background of the scenes and also a soundtrack featuring period instruments such as bagpipes, bombarde, serpent horn, bodhran.
