The audience is invited into the world of Emily Dickinson as portrayed by Ginger Grace. Enter the world of Dickinson, with all of its secrets, eccentricities and passions. In her own words, Emily says “Every town must have its local character – and that’s what I am!” Witness how Emily Dickinson is compelled to “stop the world” as creativity starts – and her poems come to life in the unique voice that defied the conventions of her time. It’s a deliriously private world – and Emily Dickinson is our host! Ginger Grace has been performing The Belle of Amherst throughout the country for the past 11 years for audiences of all ages.

Warm as summer sunshine, real as the truth, intimate as a long overdue visit between old friends...such is a Jonathan Edwards concert. Four decades into a stellar career of uncompromising musical integrity, the man simply delivers, night after night - songs of passion, songs of insight, songs of humor, all rendered in that pure and powerful tenor which, like fine wine, has only grown sweeter with age. This is one veteran performer who is neither grizzled nor nostalgic.
