Satan Amongst Us: A Full Length Play About Anne Hutchinson (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781678050221)

The theme of this play is TOLERANCE. ANNE MARBURY HUTCHINSON lived from 1590-1643. She was the first American to fight for religious tolerance. She was the daughter of Reverend Francis Marbury, mother of fourteen children, midwife and herbalist, and she was tried twice for heresy in Massachusetts. She believed that all of God's creatures had Grace which would lead them to the Good Works which were the keys to salvation. Although she was excommunicated from the Puritan Church and was banished from the Massachusetts Bay Colony, she managed to evade the gallows noose through her superior verbal acumen and Scriptural knowledge. The entire action of the play, (except for Anne's final courtroom rebuttal speech), takes place in Anne's prison room during early March of 1638. "Apparitions" who pass through Anne's prison room are: Goody Hawkins, Mary Dyer, Faith Hutchinson, and Elizabeth Cotton--all are based on real historical women.
