Pooh, Milne, and Me, November 18

E.H. Shepard on A .A .Milne and their linked lives. A dramatic monologue with photos featuring Howard Burnham – 1966: ten years after the death of the author A.A. Milne, his friend and collaborator, the artist E.H. Shepard, recalls their parallel lives and their creation of the enchanted world of the Hundred Acre Wood and its beloved denizens.

Howard Burnham is an Englishman who lives in Pacific Grove, CA. His acclaimed self-researched and written one-man shows have played throughout England and on the B.B.C. Through his monologues as historical figures, he teaches about the past in an entertaining way. In addition to his own projects – check the Monterey County Theater Alliance website for the upcoming dates – Burnham acts at Pacific Repertory Theatre in Carmel.
