Walk among the Arboretum’s beautiful trees and landscapes while enjoying a live, full-length performance of the play “A Walk with Joy,” a centennial celebration offering a more personal look into Arboretum founder Joy Morton’s life. The play, performed by professional local actors, begins in 1922, when on the eve of opening the Arboretum to the public, Joy falls into a dream, where he revisits his own memories and travels into the future — all the way to present day. He is guided by a “salty,” contemporary version of the Morton Salt Girl, who leads the way with wit, warmth and humor. All Walking Plays are approximately 90 minutes long and will not exceed two miles in hiking distance. The Winnie the Pooh-themed Walking Plays will begin Oct. 1. For tickets, visit mortonarb.org.
