The Sippican, Mattapoisett, Rochester, Wareham and Freetown historical societies are sponsoring a movie night on Sunday, April 3 at 7 p.m. at the Marion Music Hall, 164 Front St.

"Peter & John" is adapted from Guy de Maupassant’s 19^th century seaside novel, "Pierre et Jean." The film is set in 1872 Nantucket, after the demise of the whaling industry, before the rise of tourism and in the wake of the still-reverberating Civil War. Here is a link to a trailer for the film: http://kingdomcounty.org/portfolio-items/peter-john/.

For any questions call 508-758-2844 or email info@mattapoisetthistoricalsociety.org.
