SEPTEMBER PRIME TIME AT A GLANCE
mpt.org/schedule
seasons 1 & 2 This month, we return to the early days of the Crawley family and their estate to revisit a beloved ensemble of characters and settings. Seasons one and two of Downton Abbey set the stage for World War I and the upheaval of social hierarchies in Britain, leaving the upper-class family trying to understand their roles in the modern world. The “upstairs/downstairs” drama paints an intriguing picture of this aristocratic family and those serving them.
