Event Description:
"Map of my Kingdom," a contemporary play about the ownership transition of farmland, will be performed in Kesler Lecture Hall in Hickok Hall at Coe College on Wednesday, Nov. 4. A pre-show reception will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the Hickok lobby, followed by the performance at 7 p.m. In addition, there will be a panel discussion following the presentation including the playwright, Mary Swander.
"Map of My Kingdom" was commissioned by Practical Farmers of Iowa and written by Swander, who is Iowa's poet laureate. In the play, character Angela Martin, a lawyer and mediator in land transition disputes, shares stories of how farmers and landowners have approached their land transitions. Some families struggled to resolve the sale or transfer of their land, dissolving relationships. Others found peacefully rational solutions that focused on keeping the land - and the family - together.
