The Anne Hutchinson Tour of Provincetown

Overview
Get an introduction to Provincetown from one of American history's most infamous. Decidedly NOT a Pilgrim, Anne Hutchinson knows her history well enough to have been banished from Massachusetts 400 years ago and will walk you through the center of town enlivening central sites poignant to Ptown's story. Don't expect a long trek (1 mi), but do expect the "licentiousness and sinful liberty" that got Anne banished long ago. This makes the tour for adults only. Receiving the seal of the Spirit that some have called comedy from Anne takes roughly an hour. Remember, Anne's detractors felt she had "rather been a husband than a wife” and hoped to be "extolled and admired and followed after." You can now do just that by finding her 1600s epithet on social (@americanjesabel) for a sampling of this experience.

What To Expect

Provincetown
Nearly 400 years ago, they said I had "rather bine a Husband than a Wife... a preacher than a Hearer" and banished me from Massachusetts. Hm, well... I've been able to pull myself back and gain a toehold at the tip of the (now) state that United them all. Please join me in spreading my "corrupt opinions" once more on a history tour through Provincetown's center! As the Puritans' worst nightmare and icon for renovating gender, I think you will find there is no better mouth from which to hear Ptown's story. Leaning into foes' accusations of "Licentiousnesse and sinfull Liberty", some call my modern preaching comedy. Please understand therefore that the tour is for adults only. Do not waste time in discovering the grace of true Christ in your souls and join me as a member of the Elect!

Hello! Thank you for your review. No need to apologize for a matter of opinion such as not finding the tour funny, though as a joke writer, *I* am sorry to hear the jokes performed led to your disappointment. In terms of the age restriction, 21+ is used as a marker to indicate the jokes are often of a highly adult nature, and therefore non-adults should not be snuck onto the tour (as I have had to deal with in the past). Thanks for joining!

Our tour guide was hilarious and quite knowledgeable. It was a wonderful experience and we would highly recommend it.

Amidst Anne’s clever adult-only humor, was an important history lesson about societal realities expressed in the history of Provincetown. Could have listened for another hour…laughing all the way!
