Program Description

Event Details

Step back in time for a concert with performers Anne Enslow and Ridley Enslow. This hour-long show will transport you to the world of our Founders. In every age, the people put themselves, their hopes, their dreams—and often, their humor—into their music. The Colonial period was no exception, as you will see with these lively shows, often including sea shanties, dance tunes, drinking songs, “liberty songs,” and of course, love songs.

All Hallow’s Eve, featuring songs of love, death, and the supernatural will kick start your spooky Halloween spirit. Halloween as we know it today did not exist before the 1870s. But the roots of Halloween reach back centuries into our past—to All Hallows’ Eve and ancient holidays and rituals, superstitions, and folklore. Anne and Ridley Enslow bring these ancient mysteries to life with a program of music spanning several centuries.
