History and Legends through Song

In-person only!

“Waterman successfully transforms fascinating tales from history into an evening-length performance that feels personal, contemporary, and politically relevant. A must see for anyone interested in American history or American music!” – Sarah Swifter, Director, MAGMA – Gloucester, MA (November 2019)

Performing as the duo, Sultana, Jon and Li Waterman weave history and original songs to feature a rotating array of real and legendary characters and happenings throughout history. Some of the subjects are the earliest known author, Arthurian legend, the lost ancient libraries of Alexandria and Nalanda, an epic medieval battle and the Old West. The show includes some Massachusetts history as well.

Presented by Jon Waterman, musician and songwriter

This performance is made possible with the support of the Massachusetts Cultural Council and Springfield Cultural Council.
