Since 1980, Paul Morse Productions has been dedicated to bringing high-quality live theater to audiences of all ages. Its goal is to provide students with an understanding of the cultural and historical elements that determine their own personal and social attitudes and behavior.

Letters to Harriet Tubman invites you to journey back to 1902 and sit for a while on the porch with the famous American heroine Harriet Tubman as she reminisces about the exciting adventures of her life. We meet her at age 80, but she takes us back to the days of the Civil War and its aftermath, when she led the “Underground Railroad” that helped former slaves find freedom in the North. A two-character play, Harriet is joined by a guitar-playing neighbor, Jeffrey Taylor Jr. The show is interspersed with lively Civil War songs and African American spirituals including “Go Down Moses,” “Steal Away” and “Battle Hymn of the Republic.”
