About the Show...

“Women of the Watch, Keepers of the Light,” written and performed by Anna Marck and directed by D.B. Schroeder, is an uplifting performance of music, laughter, and simple honest storytelling. The play follows Anna as she relives family trips to lighthouses in Michigan, which ignites a passion to share the spectacular stories of various female lighthouse keepers of the Great Lakes. She details the lives of four particular keepers by donning voice and movement. As she steps into these brave women’s shoes, she discovers the tragedy of the hardships they faced and the beauty of their spirits. Each show is followed by a Q and A talkback at each presentation. The show was commissioned by The Lorenzo Cultural Center in Macomb, MI.

Lighthouse Keepers featured: Julia Sheridan (South Manitou Island Lighthouse), Mary Terry (Sand Point Lighthouse, Escanaba), Harriet Colfax (Michigan City Lighthouse), and Elizabeth Whitney Williams (Beaver Island and Little Traverse Light, Harbor Springs)
