The program, a series of monologues by actors representing some of the original Huguenots who founded New Rochelle and who are buried in the Huguenot burial grounds at Trinity, will be presented by Tutti Bravi Productions Inc. in collaboration with Trinity-St. Paul's Church and the library, with support from the New Rochelle Council on the Arts.
Inspired by "Spoon River Anthology," the monologues were researched and written by three local writers, Karen S. Allen, Bob Clark and Billie Tucker, who also directs the production.
