The lauded musical concert reveals the unlikely story of a humble Irish maid's influence on her reclusive mistress, Emily Dickinson.

Founded by Rosemary Caine of Ardee County Louth, Ireland, in the early 2000s, the Wilde Irish Women focuses on Irish culture and the forgotten women of Irish history.
Emily Dickinson and the Wilde Irish Women: The Story of Margaret Maher and the Celtification of Emily Dickinson explores the story of Margaret Maher who defied Dickinson's deathbed decree to burn her poems. Her brave, independent thinking and courageous action came from being born in Ireland, a country where poems are respected, not burned.
The show is funded in part by America's Hometown Laureates, Inc and the Town of Plymouth Promotions Grant.
