Robert Blecker's Father Anonymous, a dramatization of the story of founding father Dr. Joseph Warren, will play a limited engagement at AMT Theater June 13鈥揓uly 2. Joshua Koehn is set to direct.
Opening on the eve of the Boston Massacre and closing with Warren's martyrdom at Bunker Hill, Father Anonymous brings Warren's largely forgotten story to light alongside those of Samuel Adams, John Hancock, and Paul Revere.
鈥淥ur essential past defines us and can keep us on course," Blecker said in a statement. "Fourteen counties and hundreds of towns and landmarks are named for Joseph, this great person of action, principle and sacrifice. And yet 250 years later, Joseph has largely fallen into obscurity. Ideally Father Anonymous will help bring him back to life, like Longfellow's poem restored Paul Revere to America.鈥�
Father Anonymous was previously presented with public readings at Fraunces Tavern and the Ensemble Studio Theatre.
Casting will be announced at a later date.
