    GERMANTOWN COMMUNITY LIBRARY PRESENTS JESSICA MICHNA AS MRS. CHARLES DICKENS
    Germantown, WI – The Germantown Community Library will host historical impressionist Jessica Michna as Catherine Dickens, the long suffering wife of author Charles Dickens, on Thursday, November 20, 2025 at 1:00 pm. Mrs. Dickens will relate her life with “Charlie” as he becomes perhaps England's greatest author. Mrs. Dickens will also introduce the audience to such women as Nancy from “Oliver Twist”, Miss Havisham from “Great Expectations”, Betsey Trotwood from “David Copperfield" and others.

    Jessica Michna has been performing impressions of historical figures for twenty-five years. In 2016 she was awarded the Presidential Service Center’s Distinguished Service award for her riveting portrayals of First Ladies.

    The Germantown Community Library is a cornerstone of our community that provides services, ideas, and resources that enrich lives and build connections. The event will take place at N112W16957 Mequon Road, Germantown WI, and is free and open to the public.
