Little Row Boat or, Conjecture<\/em>, written by nationally renowned playwright and CFA associate professor of playwriting and theatre arts, Kirsten Greenidge<\/a>, debuted as part of CFA’s annual Fringe Festival in Studio ONE in November 2022.  Little Row Boat, or Conjecture<\/em> is a piece that\u2019s been years in the making. The piece, originally scheduled to be produced in 2020, examines the relationship between Sally Hemmings and her brother James Hemmings, while they were enslaved by Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

As the French Revolution brews outside, teenage slave Sally Hemings gets her first taste of freedom while serving in Thomas Jefferson\u2019s Paris home. Inside, she becomes involved in one of the most speculated about and scandalous relationships in American history. With verve, humor, and music, playwright Kirsten Greenidge imagines how events unfolded in the Jefferson household for the family and \u201cservants\u201d alike. Little Row Boat is a visceral and intricate story of convictions, contradictions, and sacrifice in the pursuit of liberty. (Bret Adams)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
