Anne Bonny

1697 – 1721

Anne Bonny was the famous and infamous Pirate memorialized in Captain Charles Johnson’s “The History of the Pyrates”, and portrayed endlessly in film and media. Join Anne for a discussion of her life history, as she tries to recruit you to her crew – or determine if you are secretly Privateers aligned with one of the many royal Governors with a warrant on her head.

When booking, please provide the age range of your attendees, as this program can be child-friendly (who doesn’t love pirate stories!?) or deal with adult themes.

Program themes: maritime and privateering law, prison history, life on a pirate ship, gender and sexual identity in historic context.
