Ben Butler And Shepard Return To The Russell Library

Middletown's Russell Library has invited BEN BUTLER to return to the HUBBARD ROOM for a Saturday afternoon 1:30 pm reprise performance on FEBRUARY 23rd.

The Civil War Comedy/History comes back to Middletown in celebration of Black History Month and offers those who missed the June performances another chance to enjoy this fascinating work by Richard Strand.

New Haven actor Rodney Moore returns to perform the memorable role of runaway slave Shepard Mallory. Richard Kamins carries on in the celebrated titled role of the Major General, and Daniel Ayotte adeptly portrays the Lieutenant. New to the cast will be Durham's Henry Coe as Major of the Confederate Army, returning to the "stage" after many long years.

The doors to Russell Library's Hubbard Room (in rear of Library building) will open after 1:00 pm---entered from Court Street. Seating is limited.
