A Botanical Recital for One Tree
Lead Artist Dan Daly
Text by Lee LeBreton
A special event celebrating a special tree at Prescott Farm .
A solo theatre piece that YOU perform for a Tree. Performed on the Prescott Farm property to a Black Walnut Tree, the 15 minute play takes place within a specially built red curtain theater. After receiving the bound script from the stage manager you are left alone with your audience. The script leads you through a series of stories, prompts, and actions related to this tree, this property and yourself.
And the “star” of the show is an approximately 130 year old tree that is listed on the NH Big Tree Register and is the largest in Belknap County. It is approximately 70 feet tall, and has a trunk circumference of 91 inches. Black Walnuts provide nuts for wildlife and humans and the nuts have also been used in dyes and ink in Colonial times.
