Stephen Collins brings Walt Whitman to life in this acclaimed one-man show by playwright Michael Keamy. Reviewers have noted that Collins not only bears a stunning physical resemblance to Whitman, he also brings the essence of the famed writer — both as a young man and as a poet on the eve of his 70th birthday — into arm’s reach.

7 to 8:30 p.m. at the Harris Center. This program is being offered in celebration of Whitman’s 250th birthday and the Harris Center’s 50th Anniversary, and is supported by a generous grant from New Hampshire Humanities. For more information, please contact Susie Spikol at (603) 525-3394 or by email.
