It’s not too late to get your tickets for A Taste of History presented by the John Paulding Historical Society, featuring an encore performance of ‘No Compromise’, the story of the Reservoir War, mosquitoes and mayhem.

The dinner theater will start promptly at 7:00 p.m. on Friday, October 5 and Saturday, October 6 at the JPHS museum. A delicious four course meal will be served as the actors and inter-actors play out the historic account of the 1887 Reservoir War that took place in Paulding County.

The play, creatively written by Jane Nice, was performed earlier this year to a sold out crowd. The actors and crew have agreed to do it again with a few changes and characters thrown into the mix. “We are looking forward to this revised encore performance.” says JPHS President, Kim Sutton “Even if you saw it the first time you won’t want to miss this performance. A few characters have been added and the script has been fine tuned.”  Sutton states that the telling of the events that took place is historically correct, however, some liberties have been taken with the personalities of the characters for entertainment purposes.   

For information call Kim Sutton at 419-399-2388 or the museum at 419-399-3667 (leave a message and someone will get back with you).  

This is a fundraiser for the John Paulding Historical Society museum.
