Instructor: John Dennis Anderson

Dates: Wednesdays, 10/21, 10/28, 11/4, 11/11, 11/18

Time: 1pm-3pm

Washington Irving and his work have been a pervasive presence in American pop culture for over two centuries. Best known as the author of mythical tales of a terrifying Headless Horseman and Rip Van Winkle’s twenty-year sleep, Irving was the first professional American man of letters. His pop cultural legacy ranges from Joseph Jefferson’s 40-year-run on stage as Rip Van Winkle, to Irving himself as a character in the 1938 Broadway musical Knickerbocker Holiday, to many film and TV adaptations of “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” that include Walt Disney’s 1949 animated version, Tim Burton’s 1999 horror film Sleepy Hollow, and a popular 2013-2017 TV series. The class will read select works by Irving and adaptations of them and survey the range of works he inspired .

Walter Parks & The Unlawful Assembly Concert

Wellfleet Preservation Hall

Join us on Sunday, November 8th at 5pm for Walter Parks and The Unlawful Assembly in concert.

In the span of one concert, The Unlawful Assembly entertains and informs while successfully melding roots music of divergent origins. The soundtrack to American black history – old-school spirituals, gospel, blues, and prison work chants intertwine with swamp hollers, shaped-note hymns and Appalachian reels of white homesteader origin.

Wellfleet Preservation Hall

Join us on Friday, November 13th at 7pm for a screening of the film, The Narrow Land by Jaiden van Bork followed by and Q&A.

The Narrow Land examines both the mythology and reality of Cape Cod, seeking to unravel the difficult questions that face the coastal community today as it confronts a barrage of overtourism and a subsequent housing crisis that has left locals scrambling to keep their feet planted in the sand. Weaving a personal chronicle of childhood on Cape Cod with the voices of local artists, fishermen, and hospitality workers, the film channels the eerie realities of small-town America, posing new questions about identity and memory.

American Politics in Musicals: A 250th Anniversary Assessment
Oct
8

American Politics in Musicals: A 250th Anniversary Assessment

Open University of Wellfleet

For as long as there have been entertaining musicals in the United States, edifying political commentary has often played a secondary or subliminal role in the art form. For every frivolous Cats (1981) there is an intense Hamilton (2015), matchmaking Hello, Dolly! (1964) a historically relevant 1776 (1969), flippant Funny Face (1927) a satirical Of Thee I Sing (1931). Even in shows that are ostensibly all about fun—say, Irving Berlin’s 1933 As Thousands Cheer, with songs and sketches loosely based on news of the rich and famous—the somber “Supper Time” tells the story of a woman making dinner for a husband who will never return home…from his lynching. In the hyper-energetic, feel-good musical Hairspray (2002), “I Know Where I’ve Been” sings of the long fight for racial equality.

During this five-week course, Marc Strauss, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus, Conservatory of Theatre and Dance, Southeast Missouri State University, will introduce, show DVD and YouTube videos, and lead discussion on a host of songs and dances from American musicals across eras and regions that seriously address cultural and political issues. During our country’s 250th year in 2026, the course will culminate with the showing and analysis of the Peter H. Hunt-directed Hollywood film 1776, from 1972—created as a lead-up to our 200th anniversary in 1976—written by Peter Stone with music and lyrics by Sherman Edwards

Among other climbs, the first ascents of the Matterhorn, Denali, Nanda Devi, the North Face of the Eiger, and the West Ridge of Everest will be covered. One week will be devoted to the history of the US Army’s 10th Mountain Division in World War II, with Isserman’s Winter Army as the main text. The course also considers topics related to the cultural and political background of mountaineering, including European Romanticism, American Transcendentalism, the British Empire, and Nazi Germany.

Author Talk: Thomas R. Pero

Author Talk: Thomas R. Pero

Wellfleet Public Library

Salter

More than a century ago, one of the most famous fishing places for the brook trout was Cape Cod. American Secretary of State and orator Daniel Webster was among the anglers who fished there, as did U. S. Representative Robert Barnwell Roosevelt, President Theodore's angling uncle. Thomas R. Pero's Salter tells the fascinating life history of this elusive species, Salvelinus fontinalis. The narrative draws on decades of scientific research and new interviews with the two knowledgable state fisheries biologists who have explored Massachusetts coastal streams and studied sea-run trout for the last 50 years. Historic photos, artwork and maps are combined with stunning contemporary images of rare salters in their beautiful habitats. This compelling book also covers the extraordinary human stories of volunteer riverkeepers who have dedicated their lives to the near-impossible task of rescuing these little Cape Cod rivers and restoring their original populations of native trout. With the seemingly endless bad news about assaults on our natural environment, this is a remarkable and heartening story of success. The wild fish-and their precious home rivers-are winning.
