Night at the Woodman Museum Returns; August 22, 23 & 24  

Back from its first sold-out run last year, The Woodman Museum will present Night at the Woodman Museum II - Notable Events: The Good, the Bad and the Strange. The production will include 22 scenes of Dover history that will come to life during the hour and a half tour through the grounds of the museum.  Learn about the early settlers, their strange laws and about the punishments that took place.  See an early grist mill come alive and learn about the fire that destroyed another Dover mill. Meet a civil war soldier who fought at Gettysburg and Captain William Flagg whose crew captured a British cannon and supplied a captured bell to one of Dover's earliest schools.  There will also be "President" Mary Dow and Opera star Nellie Brown Mitchell -and the return of Dover's own Marilla Ricker- who ran for Governor even before women could vote.
