Meet Queen Elizabeth II At Warminster Library

WARMINSTER, PA —With the township's connection to Warminster UK, the Warminster Library will be hosting Queen Elizabeth II later this month.

Following a sold-out visit with a Harriet Tubman reenactor, Warminster Library will again travel into the past at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 13, to meet a world-changing woman from history.

This time, community members will get a chance to meet the world’s most famous monarch, Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom.

Warminster has had a 10-year relationship with Warminster UK and recently a township resident spent time meeting officials in England there.

Alisa Dupuy from Ladies of History Productions will portray a 1977 version of the Queen on the occasion of her Silver Jubilee, the 25th year of her reign.

Dupuy as the Queen will talk about her life, marriage, and children and will take questions from the audience in character.

Dupuy, a New Jersey native, is a former French teacher and lifelong performer who founded Ladies
of History Productions in 2006. She performs as dozens of characters from history and also
employs other actors.

Dupuy herself performs 70-90 shows a year at libraries, schools, and historical events. Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away last September, is her latest character.

Warminster Library hosts historical portrayals in an effort to increase civic and social literacy.

Recognized as a Gold Star PA Forward Library by the Pennsylvania Library Association,
Warminster develops programs that promote social engagement as well as improve essential
literacies, including basic, information, health, and financial literacies.

Living history performances have a unique capacity to enable audiences to better reconstruct and interpret the past and demonstrate how this past has become part of the historical memory.

Tickets are $7 each and can be purchased at the Warminster Library with cash only.

Library staff is available to answer questions about the event (or about Queen Elizabeth II) at 215-672-4362 or refwa@buckslib.org.
