Sheryl Faye Productions - Abigail Adams: In Celebration of America's 250th Anniversary! CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO
2026-02-28 13:00 | Cathedral of the Pines – Hilltop House, 10 Hale Hill Rd., Rindge, NH, 03461, United States
Join us for a Sheryl Faye Performance of Abigail Adams – Liberty & Legacy

In celebration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, we bring to you Sheryl Faye Productions with an outstanding performance of Abigail Adams. Sometimes considered to have been a founder of the United States and is now designated as the first Second Lady and second First Lady of The United States, Abigail Adams.
Adams’s life is one of the most documented of the first ladies: she is remembered for the many letters she wrote to her husband while he stayed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, during the Continental Congresses. John frequently sought the advice of Abigail on many matters, and their letters are filled with intellectual discussions on government and politics. In one of her more famous letters she implores her husband and his colleagues, all of whom were male, to, “…remember the ladies…If particular care and attention is not paid to the Ladies we are determined to foment a Rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation.” Her letters also serve as eyewitness accounts of the American Revolutionary War home front.
This story starts off as an adult and goes back through her childhood and then back to an adult again. This show has different versions for Adults and Children. Music & Sound design by Scooter Perrotta LA Soundtrack.

This performance is approximately 45 minutes of history, celebration, and heartfelt laughter delivered by Sheryl Faye.
Abigail Adams‘ wisdom and courage continue to inspire the spirit of liberty and equality. Preview just below

“Liberty & Legacy is truly remarkable! Terrific as always. You are phenomenal” Florida
“Thank you so much for another sensational presentation. The students were captivated by your performance.” ~ Assistant Principal, MacArthur School Waltham MA
” I can not say enough about Sheryl Faye’s performances. Sheryl mesmerized the audience during the performance.” , speaks volumes about Sheryl’s performance and her ability to connect with an audience of any age. This performance was enjoyable and enthralled the audience just as much. I noticed the person assigned to take pictures was not ‘doing her job’, so I went over to ask her to take more pictures. Her reply says it all, “I’m sorry, I was so caught up in the show, I forgot”. After the show people couldn’t stop talking about her performance. I highly recommend Sheryl Faye Presents Historical Women.” ~ Erving Public Library
