Irish Famine Immigrants of Connecticut Saturday, March 29th from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. Irish immigrants who survived the Irish Famine embarked on perilous sea journeys, arriving at the Port of New York filled with hope. For many, this destination marked the beginning of a new life in a new land; for others, it was the end of their journey. Thousands of Irish famine immigrants perished at the Staten Island Marine Hospital and Quarantine Station, currently the location of the Staten Island Ferry Terminal and its surroundings. Please join Philip R. Hogan and Chrystyne Maloney to learn more about the historical significance of Staten Island to Irish Famine Immigrant history, their experiences at the Quarantine, and learn more about the new museum in Fairfield. Registration encouraged.

New Muse Productions presents: King Lear Sunday, April 13th from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. What do you call a king who gives up his kingdom? A fool? Or a father ready to pass on the burdens of power? Join actors Stephen Collins and Poornima Kirby for this haunting, darkly funny adaptation of Shakespeare’s timeless classic. This one-hour production draws directly from Shakespeare’s text, with Stephen Collins as the mercurial King Lear, and Poornima Kirby as his devoted, clear-eye fool, who narrates the action, and flows fluidly between Lear’s daughters, friends, enemies. Register here.
