| Details | Actor Rita Parisi will portray some of the spirited women who persevered throughout the American Revolution during, “The Women of ’76,” at the historic Pardee-Morris House, which was burned by the British during their raid on New Haven in 1779 (and where you can still see a burnt beam from the original structure). The free NH250 event will take place on Sunday, June 8, 2025, at 2 p.m. (Rain date: Sunday, August 24, 2025). Parisi will portray five women who witnessed the American Revolution and changed the course of history. Among them will be Baroness von Riedesel, wife of a Hessian general and chronicler of life in Revolutionary War military camps; Prudence Wright, minute woman and spy catcher; and Nancy Hart, a southern frontierswoman who faced the enemy and won. |
