Title: Living History in Colonial Williamsburg Author: Gemma Hooley Narrator: Barbara Bogaev Format: Original Recording Length: 27 mins Language: English Release date: 04-03-17 Publisher: Soundprint Genres: History, American Publisher's Summary: Step back in time to the eve of the American Revolution, following a woman whose job it is to play an 18th slave character in Colonial Williamsburg; a woman who must learn, in modern day, to interpret and recreate 1770 slave culture for a tourist audience. The story is told through this character's own narration and reflection, her interaction with other historical characters and with the tourist public in Williamsburg, and through documentation of her daily tasks. As she steps in and out of character, we discover what it's like to step in and out of history: re-enacting the mundanities and tensions of 18th century life in the fields and kitchens during the day and negotiating a modern 21st century life after visiting hours.
