Old Homestead Documentary
March 24 - April 4
Now Showing! The newly released documentary film on the history of “The Old Homestead”. Starring filmmaker Larry Benaquist, author/historian Howard Mansfield, and Swanzey Historical Society’s Lee Dunham, the film is playing in the Putnam Exhibit Hall at the Historical Society of Cheshire County now through April 4th during regular business hours and on Saturday, 3/21 & 4/4 from 9-12.
The film will be playing on a loop throughout the day.
This 25-minute film takes you through the fascinating history of the beloved 19th century play by Swanzey’s Denman Thompson and the subsequent silent films (1915 and 1922) it inspired — a true piece of New Hampshire heritage.
