Prologue: Monticello Letters of Correspondence
Send us a textWith special permission from Thomas Jefferson’s estate, we reproduce here for the first time a wonderful trove of correspondence from the days immediately leading up to the Fall of Monticello.This group of letters gives us insight into the minds and dealings of Thomas Jefferson and Ben Franklin in the days prior to their harrowing adventure on Jefferson’s mountain top plantation. However, it also sheds light on others who were part of the tale, namely the bounty hunter Lillian Method and Carmela Kaine, slave mogul and founder of Kaine Capital.The former two, of course, are luminaries of American history, and so it is always revelatory to gain greater perspective on their exploits.The latter two, though, give us a peek into the lives of these extraordinary women who might not have known it at the time, but who definitely helped shape the American story.CAST & CREWAloysius, Jupiter Nameless - Eric AustinAllela, Fiona Pratt, Gertrude Redd - Kate PiattiLillian Method, Carmela Kaine, Veronica Delmonaco - Hannah SchoonerThomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Arch Porter - Ryan KnowlesOther roles played by the cast.Original Music Arrangements - Jackie PrestiLyrics and Lead Vocals - Ryan KnowlesGuitar and Mandolin - Bob RoseChorus Singers - Robin Campbell, Jackie Presti, Lindsay RoseAudio Production and Sound Design - Alex SterlingAssistant Audio Engineer - Colin BrysonExecutive Producer - Nadine WelchWriter - Kevin LikelyProducer and Director - Justin HeymanSpecial thanks to Prof. Elizabeth Ellis-MarinoWrite us:contact@palecolumbia.com
