This year the production, A Celebration of the Sea, inhabits the docks of a nineteenth century New England seacoast town, alive with hawkers selling their wares, children playing games and seamen packing their trunks in preparation for a voyage. After saying goodbye to friends and family, sailors haul anchor and hoist the sails, singing to lighten their work.
On board they play instruments and tell tall tales of their adventures. Well hear the muscular rhythms of work songs, the lively tunes of the Focsle Foo-Foo band, and bitter-sweet ballads which recall sweethearts and homes left behind. African-American sailors, some newly freed slaves and others on their way north to freedom, add their voices in plaintive spirituals and chanteys. - wm, 06/11/2007
