face to face? Simply because she has traveled over a hundred years
through time to get our story. Join in the fun as this
nineteenth-century woman meets the modern-day world.
Review of Nellie Bly after an appearance at The New Hampshire Humanities Council Chautauqua event:
"It's always great fun to see a new character emerge
on the Chautauqua stage but Anne's portrayal of Nellie Bly was
especially rewarding; she and Nellie provided a most informative
presentation and graced the stage with wit and charm. I'd highly
reccommend Ms. Pasquale - a.k.a Nellie Bly - to any and all Chautauqua
presenters."
