Cogburn ; writer and director, Jerry Robbins.Barton Prescott finds himself in trouble with the roughnecks he took bets from during the American Marathon. Unable to pay what he owes, his life becomes endangered. Meanwhile, Marietta falls in love with an actor, and must keep their romance a secret for fear of causing an uproar at home, which seems inevitable when Jocelyn demands to meet the young man. Aurora struggles with her relationship with Kevin Hull, whose elitist ways are making her see him in a whole new light. Downstairs, Williams the Butler threatens Footman Robert with bodily harm unless he stops speaking with scullery maid Lucille. His dour mood and grave threats begin to arouse the suspicions of Miss Logan and the rest of the staff as tensions mount--and above all, Charles and Jocelyn's relationship is put to the test when tragedy strikes the Prescott home.

In that bygone golden age, Patriarch Charles presides over both his shipping line and family with a sure and strong hand, while wife Jocelyn is feeling her authority usurped by her powerfully minded mother-in-law, Augusta. Their children, Marietta, Aurora and Barton find themselves trying to make their way in a constantly changing world--filled with social upheaval and technological advancements. The Prescott's house staff goes about their duties under the supervision of the taciturn butler, Williams. Effortlessly integrating historical events into its narrative (including the second running of the American Marathon--later re-named the Boston Marathon), and filled with intrigue, warmth, and drama writ large, the Colonial Radio Theatre invites you into the Prescott household for an evocative, unforgettable depiction of Boston life as lived by those who set the pace. Williams has set an extra place for you at the table--won't you join us on Beacon Hill?
