In Episode #53, Pay-Per-HAP introduces audiences to Rudyard Kipling, one of the most internationally celebrated authors of the day. As the first four years of Kipling's marriage and fatherhood were spent in Dummerston, Vermont, where he built his beloved dream house, "Naulakha" (Hindi for "jewel beyond price"), these were productive, joyous, yet also troubling years for the talented poet and novelist.
Jackson Gillman, renown as "The Standup Chameleon," has portrayed Rudyard-in-Residence at Kipling's historic Vermont home Naulakha annually since 2000 and audiences have included historical societies and varied adult audiences. Rudyard Kipling Revisited has been endorsed by the NH Humanities To Go Speakers Bureau since 2015. His presentations have received rave reviews from the New England Library Association, The Kipling Society, and many other groups. Gillman performed Off-Broadway at the 2014 United Solo Theatre Festival, on 42nd Street, NYC, and received the Most Educational Award for his performance, beating out 130 other productions from around the world to claim that honor.
