Rokeby Museum is presenting a new production inspired by the Spiritualist history at the museum. Ticket holders will gather for a drink and a short talk on Victorian Spiritualism before entering the historic home, where actors will guide them through participatory dramatization, recreating séances based on actual historical transcripts and other historical accounts. This year’s production imagines a visit to Rokeby by Achsa Sprague, Vermont native and nationally-known medium.
Appalachian Gap Distillery is returning this year! Those aged 21 and over can purchase a specialty cocktail before the performance and enjoy it at the program’s start. A selection of tastings from the distillery will also be available. The museum will have non-alcoholic hot cider available from Yates Family Orchard.
Tickets are timed, and a limited number of seats are available for each time slot. Pre-booking is recommended as times sell out quickly.
