The new play, commissioned specifically for the Old State House's Through the Keyhole exhibition, reveals life behind the door of the Hancock House, Governor John Hancock’s 18th century Beacon Hill home.
In addition to viewing the historic door itself, on public view for the first time in decades, visitors to Through the Keyhole will experience the new 20-minute play which offers a glimpse of everyday life behind the Hancock door through the eyes of those who lived there: Cato Hancock, an enslaved person in the Hancock household and Dolly Hancock, John Hancock's wife and First Lady of Massachusetts.
Cato & Dolly premieres on Friday, July 6, 2018 at the Old State House and will run for 9 performances per week Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays at 11:00 am, 12:30 pm, and 2 pm through September 29, 2018.
The play is included in the price of admission to Through the Keyhole at the Old State House, 206 Washington Street, Boston, MA, 02109.
