A Very Special Event: Regis College Premiers an Original Musical about Gloucester’s Fishermen’s Wives
SIX PAIRS OF HANDS, A MUSICAL by Wendy Lement and Students in the Fall 2011 Oral History and Performance Course. Directed by Wendy Lement
In 1969 Gloucester fishermen’s wives formed an association to fight federal regulations that favored large corporations and would have destroyed their local fishing industry. Since then, the Gloucester Fishermen’s Wives Association has become an international model for conserving and protecting valuable fish stocks for future generations. Through their dedication, solidarity and faith, these remarkable women have endured numerous hardships, obstacles, and tragedies with strength of spirit and grace. Based on oral histories of fishermen’s wives, the Regis College Theatre Company presents an original musical that honors the extraordinary lives and the political battles waged and won by these courageous women.
Good Morning Gloucester
