It’s London, 1812, when, on the eve of eighteen-year-old Lady Helen Wrexhall’s presentation to the queen, one of her family’s housemaids disappears. Drawn into the shadows of London, she meets Lord Carlston, one of the few who can stop the perpetrators: a cabal of demons infiltrating every level of society. Wednesday, April 29, 1812. In the sun-warmed quiet of her uncle’s library, Lady Helen Wrexhall spread the skirt of her muslin morning gown and sank into the deep curtsey required for Royal presentation: back held straight, head slightly bowed,... “Your Majesty is correct,” she said to the blue brocade sofa doing duty as Queen Charlotte. “I am the daughter of Lady Catherine, Countess of Hayden. “Yes, Your Highness, I am indeed the daughter of Lady Catherine. She rose from the curtsey and dropped the folds of her gown, opening her fingers into long spreads of frustration. Her aunt had told her to find a tone that acknowledged her connection to Lady Catherine, but also maintained a dignified distance from it. A great deal of meaning to place upon a few words. She backed a few steps away from the blue silk bulk of the substitute queen. Tomorrow she would be curtseying to the real Royal ladies,.
The community is invited to come out this weekend and see Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast, Jr. ,” presented by the TUAC Junior Summer Theatre, with shows being held at 7 p. m. on Friday, Aug. The Junior Theatre cast contains approximately 70 students led by Erin Clarke (Director), Clair Shaver (Assistant Director), Larkin McDaniel (Student Assistant) and Carmen Ellerbee (Producer). “Beauty and the Beast Jr. ” tells the story of Belle (Anna Jordan), an adventurous young girl, and the Beast (James Logan), her hideous captor who is actually a young prince trapped under a spell. In order to break the spell, the Beast must learn to love another and earn her love in return – before time runs out. With the help of the castle’s enchanted staff, including a loving teapot (Anna Davis), a charming candelabra (Dalton Dennis), and a nervous mantel clock (Kya Haywood), Belle and the Beast find a beautiful friendship and love that neither knew was... “Beauty and the Beast Jr. ” features classic songs from the Academy Award-winning film score such as “Be Our Guest” and “Belle,” as well as original songs from the 1994 Tony-nominated Broadway musical. Corporate sponsors for the “Beauty and the Beast, Jr. ” are Dr. Johnny Brown, D. M. D. and Zoe Pediatrics.
“Each year that we do this program, I am amazed by the diversity and importance of the artifacts in the care of Virginia’s museums,” said Jennifer Thomas, executive director of the Virginia Association of Museums. Occoquan submitted a blacksmith leg vise, iron bar and conduit piece from the Occoquan Ironworks, which operated from 1755 to 1775. The 40-inch long blacksmith leg vise was made and used by master forger, Henry Selecman, during his employ there,... The vise has been handed down through seven generations of the Selecman family and is now on loan to the Mill House Museum,” the society says on its website. Haymarket has submitted a ledger from the J. W. Jordan & Son Store, which operated in the town in the late 1800s to early 1900s. In Loudoun County, the court clerk’s office submitted a jury drum constructed in 1835 to pick winning lottery tickets. The drum was used for the next 100 years to pick names for jury panels. The Loudoun Museum submitted an Odd Fellow’s ceremonial cloth featuring the image of a skeleton. The museum is located in what used to serve as the Odd Fellow’s Hall for the benevolent society. The Oatlands Historic House and Gardens submitted a mantle clock owned by Edith Eustis, who with her husband used the plantation as a country home in the 1900s. The Top 10 program brings awareness to the efforts of museums as stewards of our...

Mantel clocks (also known as mantle or shelf clocks) were inexpensive to make and affordable to own, which explains why they were one of the most popular clocks in the 18th and 19th centuries. Part decoration, part practical timepiece, mantel clocks are so named because they were small enough to be displayed on a shelf or mantel.Mantel clocks were made with both brass and wood movements and ran anywhere from 30 hours to eight days between windings, although some Seth Thomas clocks from the...
