A WOMAN OF THE WORLD

May 15-30, 2021

By Rebecca Gilman

Directed by Courtney Sale

Video on Demand

A naturalist, modern love ideologist, and vivacious conversationalist, New Englander Mabel Loomis Todd – best known for introducing poet Emily Dickinson to America in 1890 – regales us with tales of her sensational life, especially her 13 years with the Dickinson family. Woman of the World speaks the whole, unadulterated truth about the desires, dreams, and sometimes heartbreaking disappointments of a free spirit, who was way, way ahead of her time.
