55.3 Nightfall on the Nutmeg State: "Little Miss 1565"

A traveling circus goes up in flames, leaving an unsettling mystery in its ashes.



"Little Miss 1565" is the third of four episodes from our recent return to the live stage! Nightfall on the Nutmeg State is an original series crafted from the lore and legends of the great state of Connecticut — and it was performed live at The Westport Library in Westport, CT, on Friday the 13th of October, 2023.
