Experience the often overlooked but extremely significant First Lady brought to life at the Pembroke Public Library on Tuesday, October 8th in Quaker Girl Takes Washington’s Center Stage: The Influence of Dolley Madison. Janet Parnes of Historical Portrayals by Lady J will portray the wit, charm and resourcefulness that helped this Washington high society woman unite a divided congress, inspire new standards of decorum, introduce women into the politics of the day and earn the respect of military and civilian communities. And while it is true that the elegant Mrs. Madison was also a snuff aficionado, please know that no snuff will be snuffed on the premises during the show, which runs from 6:30 to 7:45 PM.
