F25-17 The Mitford Sisters NEW
Class | Registration opens 8/17/2025 9:00 AM EDT
Six aristocratic sisters belonging to the Mitford Family – the original Downton Abbey family. They were labeled the “bright young things” of the 1930s and 1940s, expected to do what aristocratic women did in those days: marry well and have children.
They reflected a social upheaval of the time, taking on quite different careers: a novelist, a farmer, a couple of fascists, a communist and a duchess – a Mitford for everyone.
