A FICTIONAL STORY INSPIRED BY REAL EVENTS
As we continue to navigate through this landscape, it has been evident that these individuals face exposure for their transgressions, they often seem more concerned with preserving their legacy than their innocence. The Honorable Herbert Peabody is a fictional story inspired by real events, using no actual names or incidents. The struggles Joe faces in the play with saving his tour and protecting his hero's legacy confront questions about personal responsibility and abuse of power, revealing that these issues transcend any one person or political party, prompting the question: "Who will hold them accountable for their actions? If not us, then who?" Museums? Historians? Libraries? As a result, Joe the Tour Guide and The Honorable Herbert Peabody were born.
Thus, within today’s divisive political climate, one could argue that The Honorable Herbert Peabody is as much about ‘politics’ as The Love Boat is about an actual boat. |
