The current Colonial Williamsburg blog features the theatre troupe for which she works. But even better, browse down that page to the embedded video about the Memoirs of Anne Bailey - that's my wife, and a hilarious series you can watch (it's on hiatus because of the virus, but will continue!)

Probably I'm not human - unable to pass captcha
Hmm, I didn't know there was a captcha. What fun.
Well, here's a PDF of the page:

Alas, the filming is on hiatus due to the coronavirus.
Wow, what are those old guitars? I see one of them has 10 strings ?
From my wife:
First guitar on the left on the back row (Luke): Ute-ulele which is a ukelele that looks like a lute.
Second from the left (back row) (Steven): It would have been called a "Spanish guitar" in the 18th century, although this one was crafted at Colonial Williamsburg in 1983.
Third from the left: Patrick is holding a mandolin
Bottom row, right (Alyssa): She's not sure what it is offhand, actually. It is a guitar, though (as opposed to some other guitar-like instrument). The carving in the hole of it, though, is called a "rose".
Bonus: The horse's name is Star.
That looks quite interesting, indeed. Unfortunately, the chances of attending a live performance are rather low for me ...

One nice thing is that I'm allowed to video performances and post them. :)
I don't have anything I can release right now, but eventually I'll add to this thread.
