Arts-In-Education Exploratory Enrichment

Window through Time-Journals of American Revolutionary War Spies Virtual (Live Videoconference)

Presented by The Ward Melville Heritage Org.

Engage your students with this interactive reader’s theater performance about the Culper Spy Ring- America's first successful spy network! Presented live from the Setauket, Long Island, in the authentic Brewster House, c. 1665, students role-play Patriots, Loyalist and British soldiers as they meet Joseph Brewster’s indentured servant named Dolly Brown. Students explore multiple perspectives and motivations during the war including Patriots, Loyalists, women, the enslaved, and Native Americans; engage in spy-craft, and learn how ordinary people have shaped American history.
