This 1-hour program pays homage to Abigail Adams, one of America’s most influential First Ladies, whose wisdom, letters, and early advocacy continue to resonate today. A Gather Place Museum reenactor brings Abigail to life—wife of President John Adams and mother of President John Quincy Adams—sharing her famous appeal to “remember the ladies” and her powerful reflections on liberty, government, and equality. Through compelling first-person scenes, excerpts from Abigail’s letters, and subtle 18th-century costume transitions, audiences experience her sharp intellect, her influence on early American policy, and the remarkable partnership she shared with her husband.
