About this event
New England Regional Fellowship Consortium grantee KT Turner explores the influence of minstrelsy on entertainment in Connecticut and the region during and after the nineteenth century. The virtual talk examines the role of African American minstrel performers on Vaudeville circuits and considers what these forms of entertainment reveal about the cultural landscape of Reconstruction.
The presentation takes place November 10 from 12 pm to 1 pm. It is free and open to the public, but tickets are required to receive the Zoom link. For questions, contact Public Programs Coordinator Jen Busa at jbusa@connecticutmuseum.org .
