Join us for a performance of an original play depicting an 1842 trial – Julia Roberts v. Austin Adams and Anne Harding – in which Julia Roberts, an enslaved woman, sues to win her freedom. This script is based on original documents, notes on the testimony from the 1842 trial, and research by Jessica Kaplan, Zachary Newkirk, and the Memorializing the Enslaved in Arlington team. Julia Sues for Freedom is a partnership between the Black Heritage Museum of Arlington and Guillotine Theatre, with the support of the Arlington Historical Society.Be part of the story, be part of the jury!
We will be asking attendees to be part of the jury. If you would like to be on the jury, let us know when you arrive.
