Nellie – The Musical (Celebrating Women's History Month at Worcester Historical Museum)
February 29, 2024 @ 12:00 am - March 8, 2024 @ 12:00 am
4th Wall Stage Company, Worcester Historical Museum, Worcester Women’s History Project and Open Sky present NELLIE – The Musical.
The true story of Nellie Bly, the New York World reporter who checked herself into a lunatic assylum to report on the horrors in 1887. Medical historians and patient advocates, however, rightly revere Bly for her infamous exposé. Bly published her daring dispatches as a book, “Ten Days in a Mad-House.” that remains a classic in the annals of psychiatry and a cogent warning.
Performance will run February 28 March 9, 2024 (Thursday, Friday, Saturday at 8pm and 2pm matinee on Saturdays)
Book by: Robby Steltz
Composed and Musical Direction by: Stephen Murray
Directed and Produced by Barbara Guertin and Robbin Joyce
