The Belle of Amherst
by William Luce
Based on the life of poet Emily Dickinson from 1830 to 1886, and set in her Amherst, Massachusetts home, the play makes use of her work, diaries, and letters to recollect her encounters with the significant people in her life – family, close friends, and acquaintances.
It balances the agony of her seclusion with the brief bright moments when she was able to experience some joy.
