Program to entertain, enlighten audience
In honor of the observance of New York state’s official Elizabeth Cady Stanton Day, the Elizabeth Cady Stanton Women’s Consortium will be celebrating Stanton’s birthday with a performance by singer, songwriter and historian Peggy Lynn on Sunday at 2 p.m. at the Glove Theatre. Peggy Lynn will appear in period costume to tell the story of the American woman’s struggle to vote through the suffrage movement’s songs. The not-to-be-missed program, titled “Singing for Suffrage,” was developed by Peggy Lynn as part of her master’s thesis. She will sing songs collected from the Library of Congress, Smith College, Vassar College and the Schlesinger Library. Doors will open at 1:30 p.m., and complimentary desserts will be available. Coffee and other beverages may be purchased to benefit the restoration of the historic theater. The 40-minute concert will begin at 2 p.m. with time for questions afterward. Peggy Lynn has performed on WMHT and has several CDs available for purchase.
