“A Turning of the Tide:” Immersive Theatre at Mabee Farm

In this immersive, site-specific theatre event, audiences step into the Capital Region on the eve of the Battle of Saratoga. Throughout Mabee Farm, the audience will encounter the American Revolution as it unfolds from multiple, often unheard perspectives.

• Women navigating their role in the war.
• Immigrants and Black Americans confront a fragile promise of freedom.
• Hessian mercenaries, far from home, find their way through the wilderness.
• Shakers preach a radical gospel of pacifism.
• British soldiers face the realities of war.

In this production, the audience does not simply observe the past; they walk through it, experiencing the human cost, moral complexity, and emotional urgency of the moments that shaped the nation.

This program is part of SCHS America250 initiative, and is presented in partnership with Siena University and NorthEast Theatre Ensemble.

Performances are May 22-24 and May 29-31 at Mabee Farm Historic Site.
