About the Program: 
The Field House Museum is pleased to virtually welcome Gregg Andrews, author of Shantyboats and Roustabouts: The River Poor of St. Louis, 1875–1930, on Wednesday, December 4, at 10:00 a.m. 


Shantyboat dwellers and steamboat roustabouts formed an organic part of the cultural landscape of the Mississippi River bottoms during the rise of industrial America and the twilight of steamboat packets from 1875 to 1930. Nevertheless, both groups remain understudied by scholars of the era. Most of what we know about these laborers on the river comes not from the work of historians but from travel accounts, novelists, songwriters, and early film producers. As a result, images of these men and women are laden with nostalgia and minstrelsy. Gregg Andrews’s book uses the waterfront squatter settlements and Black entertainment district near the levee in St. Louis as a window into the world of the river poor in the Mississippi Valley, exploring their daily struggles and experiences and vividly describing people heretofore obscured by classist and racist caricatures.


This virtual program is free with limited seats for the in-person watch party and limited availability on  Zoom.

Reservations must be made in advance at https://fieldhousemuseum.org/events/programs/, by calling the Museum at 314-421-4689, or by emailing This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

About the Speaker:
Gregg Andrews is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus of History at Texas State University, former National Endowment for the Humanities Fellow, former Andrew Mellon Pre-Doctoral Fellow in the Humanities, prize-winning author, and singer-songwriter/recording artist who fronts the south Texas band, Doctor G & the Mudcats. Shantyboats and Roustabouts has won several awards, including the James V. Swift Medal for Excellence in Maritime Literature; the Missouri History Book Award; the John Lyman Book Award; and the Hamlin Garland Prize in Popular History.

Emery Entertainment is pleased to bring back “Christmas with C.S. Lewis” to the Westport Playhouse stage starring St. Louis’s own Gregory Williams Welsch, November 29-December 15. Tickets are $64 and on sale now. Tickets may be purchased through MetroTix at www.metrotix.com or by calling 314/534-1111.  A special 50% off discount is available by using code CHRISTMAS when purchased online.

In the early years of his young adult life C.S. Lewis believed the story of Christ’s birth was nothing more than feel-good myth. That all changed after a particular encounter with his great friend and fellow author, J R R Tolkien. Although both men loved mythology in general, Tolkien was convinced that the Jesus myth was the one true myth. That was the start of Lewis’ journey from Atheism to Christianity. From that point on Christmas, for Lewis, took on an entirely different meaning. Here we find him at his home near Oxford on Christmas Eve hosting a group of Americans who are Christmassing in England. They are about to experience an unforgettable assortment of Yuletide recollections which stimulates a whole range of emotions – curiosity, laughter, gladness and even some tears. Above all, they will discover how that encounter with Tolkien forever changed his Christmas celebrations.

St. Louis native Gregory Williams Welsch trained in New York and has trod the boards in the guise of some of the greatest roles ever created for the stage. He has been entertaining audiences for years with the authenticity of his performances. Welsch has graced both the small and big screen as well, but it is in the amphitheatre of live performances where he truly shines. He is thrilled to return home to perform in one of his favorite roles at Westport Playhouse.
