Nationally- known Thoreau re-enactor Kevin Radaker will portray Thoreau in a one-person dramatic presentation. Weaving together Thoreau’s most famous quotes with biographical and historical information, Radaker skillfully presents Thoreau’s personality, intellect and wit, making the audience feel that they are in the presence of the actual man.

This performance will stress Thoreau’s political views and will contain selections from Thoreau’s famous speech “In Defense of Captain John Brown.” The dramatic monologue will be followed by a question-and-answer session with Thoreau, then with Radaker.
