BOSTON – A great work of historical fiction transports audiences back in time in a uniquely human way. On Wednesday, Feb. 28, from 7 to 8:30 p.m., join playwright Patrick Gabridge and novelist William Martin to discuss what goes into writing stories set in revolutionary times in America’s history. Patrick Gabridge has written numerous historical fiction plays, including Revolution's Edge, the first original play at the Old North Church. William Martin is a master of historical thrillers and is well known for his best-selling series of books starring the treasure hunter Peter Fallon. Tune in on Zoom to hear Gabridge and Martin shed light on their process for researching little-known events and people, portraying history from a variety of viewpoints, the differences between writing plays and novels, and more. This virtual event is accessible with a donation of any amount to support Old North Illuminated, the nonprofit that stewards Old North Church. The 2024 Speaker Series is brought to you in part by HUB Town Tours. To register, please visit: https://www.oldnorth.com/events/.
