Emily Dickinson will always be one of the greatest mysteries of the literary world.

She rarely left her bedroom. She chose not to publish her work. In the event of her death, she ordered her papers burned.

And yet, Dickinson is widely considered to be the greatest poet in American history and one of the finest writers in the English-speaking world.

In this Pulitzer-nominated play, writer William Luce invites us into Emily’s mind, words, and family home in Amherst, Massachusetts.

Join us at Buntport Theater for an unforgettable and moving performance.
