SUMMARY:Abigail: Founding Mother
DESCRIPTION:To be clear\, I am not performing at this event\, but I will be introducing Mrs. Abigail Adams to Fairfax\, VA. And I did have a hand in arranging her visit. Megan Wells is a powerhouse\, just like the women she’s portraying. Do not miss seeing this FREE event! \nDetails here:  bettersaidthandone.org/abigail-adams-founding-mother/\nRegistration not required. Just show up and enjoy! \nIn Abigail: Founding Mother\, national award-winning actor and storyteller\, Megan Wells\, brings Abigail Adams to life. In this humorous and historically accurate portrayal\, Megan Wells vivifies the full measure of Abigail’s contribution to our democracy.  Behind the scenes but very firm\, Abigail rode the risky edge of feminine power.  Not too much\, not too little – choose your words carefully – just right.  Relevant\, moving and wry with wit\, Megan’s Abigail awakens new perspectives of how we must “remember the ladies.” \nAbigail: Founding Mother\nMarch 14\, 2026\, 3:00pm – 4:00pm\nHistoric Blenheim\, 3610 Blenheim Blvd\, Fairfax\, VA 22030\nFree\nIntended for ages 12 and up. \nThank you to the Fairfax City Commission on the Arts for making this program possible.\n \nAbigail’s friend\, Eliza Hamilton\, will be appearing at The Women’s Storytelling Festival\, in Fairfax City\, March 19 – 22\, 2025. They are both on the most intimate terms with Ms. Wells.

SUMMARY:The 2026 Women's Storytelling Festival
DESCRIPTION:I’m thrilled to once again emcee a showcase at the Women’s Storytelling Festival. \nThe 2026 Women’s Storytelling Festival will take place March 19 – 22\, 2026\, starting with a virtual only showcase on the 19th and continuing in-person at the Sherwood Community Center\, 3740 Blenheim Blvd\, Fairfax\, VA 22030 through March 22nd. \nThe Women’s Storytelling Festival Main Page\nThe WSF Tickets Page\nThe Women’s Storytelling Festival\, produced annually in March by Better Said Than Done\, is a festival celebrating all women and gender nonconforming spoken-word performing artists. The festival debuted in March 2020 in Fairfax City\, VA. The stories shared at the first festival were no different than what you’d hear at any festival. There were folk tales\, historical tales\, personal stories\, myths\, legends\, and lying. The one difference was that all the voices were female. And that one difference was key. \nThis is a storytelling festival\, like any other. However\, when women feel safe and heard\, like we are in a space where our stories are given equal attention\, the performances\, and the stories themselves\, are different. There is a hum of feminine power that runs through the festival even when the stories are about Jack\, Coyote\, Anansi\, or that thing that happened that one time at work. We are are human. We are storytellers. We are women. Hear us tell. \nThe Women’s Storytelling Festival is intended for a mature audience.
