Interpretive Program about Louise, Hattie and Edith Mayo
Partner Organizations: It's About Time Theater, The History Center of Olmsted County.
While many publications exist on the history of the Mayo Clinic and the Mayo Brothers, little research has been done on the mother and wives of the Mayo family. Louise, Hattie and Edith Mayo had a significant influence, not only on the Mayo Clinic, but on the history of Rochester. Through this partnership, the It's About Time Theater will collaborate with the Olmsted County Historical Society to research and develop a historical play to tell this story. The resulting stage production, "Beyond the Gloves," will reach audiences through live performances in 2011 and also through digital recordings that can be replayed. The research generated through this project will be available to future generations as a starting point for inquiry about these influential women.
