The play, which will be a world premiere, will run Feb. 19-21 at Wharton's Pasant Theater. In the starring role is Sabrina Sloan, who played Angelica Schuyler in "Hamilton" on Broadway. The play is directed by Hannah Ryan, a resident director of “Hamilton”. Seaton said she has been living inside the head of Sally Hemings since 1998 or so.

This Unassuming BBQ Joint In Michigan Has Fried Pickles That Are Truly Next-Level
The first time I pulled into that gravel lot on Willis Road, I didn’t even have the engine off before the smell of smoldering hickory high-jacked my senses. I sat at a scratched wooden table and listened to the rhythmic, percussive snap of a perfectly fried pickle, that specific, high-frequency crunch that tells you the batter is thin and the oil was exactly the right temperature.
