Wednesday, November 21st @ 7:00 PM Michael Van Devere JOHN HARVARD Celebrating the 400th anniversary of John Harvard's birth, 1607-2007, JOHN HARVARD is the fictional account of the Puritan reverend who would become Harvard University's first great benefactor and eternal namesake. Filmed at the Cambridge Historical Society, starring Harvard undergraduates and with music by the Harvard Glee Club. On the evening of September 14, 1638, Reverend John Harvard returns to his home in Charlestown, Massachusetts for the last time. That night, he is visited by Reverend Thomas Allen to compose his will. Though comforted by his wife Ann and manservant Benjamin, he gradually weakens from tuberculosis, physically and spiritually, until he can no longer breathe except to utter his last words to friend Nathaniel Eaton, a bequest that would change the New World. Alex Breaux '09 is John Harvard, Evan Siegel '07 is Reverend Thomas Allen, Elina Kanellopoulou is Ann Harvard, Michael Laures '09 is Benjamin, Ryan Pope '08 is Nathaniel Eaton and Jon-Mark Overvold '09 is Thomas Harvard.
