Actor and playwright Leslie McCurdy will bring her one woman play, “The Spirit of Harriet Tubman,” to the Cheboygan Opera House at 3 p.m. on Saturday, March 26.
McCurdy invokes the “spirit” of Harriet Tubman as she portrays the life of the famous Underground Railroad conductor, recreating stories familiar and some rarely told, using words said to have been Harriet Tubman’s own. Through it all, the audience will learn of the faith and conviction that drove Harriet Tubman to follow her dreams; the spirit of the past connecting with the present, inspiring her charges to have the courage to do the same in envisioning their future.
