Connecticut's Old State House

Genealogist and historian John Mills will host the official book launch event for his debut work, The Narrative of Primus: A Lineage Woven into America’s History set to be released on April 21. The Narrative of Primus reconstructs the life of an enslaved African boy brought to colonial Connecticut and traces the generations of his descendants who fought in the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, and beyond. Through meticulous genealogical research and analysis of primary sources, Mills brings forward a story that has largely remained untold. The book can be purchased prior to the event here.
The choice of venue underscores the significance of the work. The Connecticut Old State House, one of the oldest state houses in the nation, serves as a powerful setting to reflect on the early ideals of American democracy and the individuals whose experiences were not fully represented within them.
The April 29 event will include a brief author talk, a reading, and an opportunity for attendees to engage directly with Mills and purchase signed copies of the book.
This event is free. Please REGISTER HERE!

FEED ME, SEYMOUR!
Riding high on the excitement of our 2025 ASL-infused hit, "The Rocky Horror Show," the Little Theatre of Manchester and <a href="https://www.conndeaftheatre.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Connecticut Deaf Theatre</a> are together again to serve up a fully accessible, ASL-infused production of the deviously delicious "LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS."
Step into the shoes of gentle Seymour Krelborn, a hapless flower shop assistant whose luck changes when he stumbles upon a peculiar plant with a taste for blood. Dubbed "Audrey II" after his secret crush, this rapidly growing botanical oddity tempts Seymour with dreams of stardom...as long as he keeps feeding its insatiable appetite.
From the infectious rhythms of the doo-wop street chorus to the escapades of a sinister dentist, this botanical thriller bursts onto the stage in a dazzling fusion of English and American Sign Language. This cult classic sci-fi musical promises even more color, energy, and accessibility for all.
What does "ASL-infused" mean?
Everything will be signed and voiced onstage together — there's not only sign language onstage nor is it just the voiced actors onstage with interpreters supporting them. 
 
The signing will occur onstage with the actors. This is different from a "shadow cast" where the voice is primary and the ASL interpreter follows the action onstage interpreting for the voice. This show contains full accessibility onstage at all times. 
I'm Deaf - will I be able to fully understand the show?
Yes! This show is all about inclusivity and our co-directing team have worked together to ensure full access at all times for our Deaf and hard of hearing audience members. 
I'm hearing - will I be able to fully understand the show?
Yes! Everything is sung/spoken in English as well as signed. This is a unique experience that EVERYONE can appreciate and learn from. 
Is there assigned seating for accessibility?
No, we've made an effort to make sure all seats are accessible; however, if you do not need visual proximity in order to understand the show, we ask that you do not sit in the first few rows to allow for others that may.
