Larry Spotted Crow Mann’s Freedom In Season
Co-produced by Double Edge Theatre and Ohketeau Cultural Center

Freedom in Season is based on Mann’s great-great-great-grandfather Samuel Vickers: Union Civil War Veteran. It is a riveting and emotional account that centers around the untold story of Nipmuc men in the Civil War, dispossession of Nipmuc lands, and removal of their children. Featuring Larry Spotted Crow Mann, Andre Strongbearheart Gaines, Jr, Jasmine Rochelle Goodspeed, Tomantha Sylvester, and Daishaun Red Deer Garate.
Attendees were welcome to experience an exhibit post performance created with Nipmuc scholar Cheryl Watching Crow on Indigenous history, focusing on Mann’s family history, as well as an after-performance gathering/talk directly following the performance between Watching Crow and Mann.
