A Wharton Center Production
Written by Sandra Seaton
Performed by Sabrina Sloan
Directed by Hannah Ryan
SALLY—a powerfully moving, one-woman drama set at Monticello in the days before Thomas Jefferson’s death—is a Wharton Center Original Production. Sabrina Sloan, Hamilton’s Angelica Schuyler, brings to the stage a determined Sally, who performs and inhabits Thomas Jefferson, his daughter Martha, and Sally’s brother, James. Amid mounting family tensions, Sally must fight to ensure that Jefferson’s long-ago promise to free their own children from slavery at the age of 21 will be kept.
Playwright Sandra Seaton’s work has been performed around the country, from the Kennedy Center, Pittsburgh Opera, and Carnegie Hall to the Glimmerglass Festival. She is the winner of the Mark Twain Award from the Society for the Study of Midwestern Literature.
Hannah Ryan, former resident director of Hamilton on Broadway, brings her inimitable magic to these much-anticipated performances.
