presents a series of community performances based on
The Book Women
by Rachel Bublitz
In the midst of the Great Depression, in a community crushed by the collapse of coal, and isolated by the very mountains they call home, a group of determined librarians take to their horses to reach the people of Eastern Kentucky. With a dedication equal to the US Postal Service, these “Book Women'' deliver more than the books and magazines they carry in their saddlebags. They bring hope. They bring dreams. They bring the promise that if we support one another, tomorrow will be better. The first performance based on this play by Rachel Bublitz will be in Spring 2025, with plans to bring performances to libraries throughout the Summer!
