Rudely Stamp’d has come a long way in 2018!  Our first conversation – Now We Stand By Each Other Always – went from the drawing board to the stage, with three great performances since September.  Even before the dawning of 2019, we have six bookings with others pending.

We also have some wonderful news to share with the world: we have added two new acts!  The first is set in June 1863 – Grant and Sherman meet during the siege of Vicksburg to discuss military affairs just weeks before the surrender of the Gibraltar of the West.  The second takes place in March 1864 in Cincinnati, Ohio – Grant has recently been promoted to Lt. General and is now commander-in-chief of all Union armies.  The generals meet to map out the Atlanta and Overland Campaigns.  These new acts, which will be ready for Spring 2019, will be available as part of a three act play (Act I: Vicksburg, Act II: Cincinnati, and Act III: City Point) or each act is available on its own.  We expect significant interest in this new development, so book early!

For anyone interested in attending a performance, here are a few of our 2019 dates which are open to the public:

January 12 at the Seymour Public Library, Brockport, NY

March 22nd at the Morgan-Manning House, Brockport, NY

May 29th at the West Seneca Historical Society, West Seneca, NY

August (date TBA) at the Holland Land Office, Batavia, NY
