Once again the N.O.M.E. gave out their much-coveted Lambie Awards to two worthy actors who performed in the August 2011 dramatization of the murders at #92. Ben Rose has been with the Pear Essential Players for a long time playing Officer Medley and Detective Seaver. He is a great ad libber, fast study, and pinch hitter when needed. Thanks Ben, for all you do for us!

Suzann Rogers, who works at the Lizzie Borden Bed & Breakfast Museum also, won her Lambie as Bridget Sullivan on her very first year out! Congratulations Suzann- you have a very convincing Irish accent.

A very special award was given to Nicole Thompson who played Andrew Borden under the sheet. For Best Dramatic Sound Effect with a Vegetable (simulating a cracking joint).

August 4th – A Busy Day for the Mutton Eaters

Posted in August 4th, Borden Places and Spaces, Potpourri, Preview of Coming Adventures, Projects & Presentations, The Game's Afoot, What's New with tags August 4th at the Lizzie Borden B&B on July 29, 2008 by administrator

This year, a goodly number of the Mutton Eater flock will be joining staff regulars at the Lizzie Borden Bed and Breakfast annual re- enactment. This will be the largest cast ever, in the 12 year history of the house.

Along with all the family members, (even Emma who will “return from Fairhaven”), Dr. Dolan, Mrs. Churchill. Mrs. Bowen, Detective Seaver, Alice Russell, Miss Manning from the Fall River Herald, and even the family undertaker, Mr. Winward will be appearing on the scene. The script will be more interactive this year, with the house visitors helping police search the cellar for weapons and interacting with the costumed actors. Mr. Borden will already have been found on the sofa, but the tour guests will have to find the body of Mrs. Borden when someone suddenly realizes she is “missing”. Tour times are approximately on the half hour from 11 to 3:30 on Monday, August 4th.
