Liberty! The Saga of Sycamore Shoals

The Official Outdoor Drama of the State of Tennessee begins its 45th season June 7, 2024 at Sycamore Shoals State Historic Park in Elizabethton, TN and continues every weekend in June beginning each evening at 8:00 PM in the Fort Watauga Amphitheater.

Tennessee’s official outdoor drama is presented by a cast of local performers against the backdrop of Fort Watauga. Liberty! portrays the significant history of Sycamore Shoals during the late 18th century.

The concept of outdoor drama offers a very unique format in which to present a theatrical performance. Without a doubt, experiencing live theater, beside the cool waters of the Watauga River, with Fort Watauga as the backdrop to the play, is unlike any other. Theatrical lighting, professional sound, and a host of unexpected effects completely immerse the audience in the lifestyles of the late 18th century.

As the story unfolds, long hunters and settlers begin leaving the protection of the English Colonies, crossing the Appalachian Mountains in violation of the British Proclamation of 1763. Historically, along the Watauga Old Fields, families soon made their homes, formed a new government, bought and traded land from the Cherokee, and ultimately, during the American Revolution, fought for the freedom we hold so dear today.

The series of events that unfolded at Sycamore Shoals were critical to state and national history in the 18th century. These dramatic chapters in America’s westward expansion set the tone for a number of events that helped propel the British colonies towards independence and a democratic form of government. These stories are proudly shared with our guests during each performance of Liberty! The Saga of Sycamore Shoals.

The 2024 season will also mark the 14th exciting year for Carter’s Store, a venue named in honor of the original store opened by pioneers Carter and partner William Parker shortly after they arrived on the frontier in 1771. A fine menu of mouth-watering treats will be offered each evening for Liberty! guests. During your visit to Sycamore Shoals, please plan the time to visit our award winning interpretive museum which opened in June of 2013.

An heirloom tomato (also called heritage tomato in the UK) is an open-pollinated, non-hybrid heirloom cultivar of tomato. They are classified as family heirlooms, commercial heirlooms, mystery heirlooms, or created heirlooms. They usually have a shorter shelf life and are less disease resistant than hybrids. They are grown for various reasons: for food, historical interest, access to wider varieties, and by people who wish to save seeds from year to year, as well as for their taste. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heirloom_tomato
----------------------------
Eine Erbstück-Tomate (auch Heritage Tomate in Großbritannien) ist eine offenbekannte, nicht-hybride Erbstück-Sorte von Tomaten. Sie werden als Familienerbstück, kommerzielle Erbstücke, Mystery Erbstück oder Erbstücke eingestuft. Sie haben normalerweise eine kürzere Haltbarkeit und sind weniger krankheitsresistent als Hybriden. Sie werden aus verschiedenen Gründen angebaut: aus Lebensmitteln, historischem Interesse, Zugang zu breiteren Sorten und von Menschen, die von Jahr zu Jahr Samen retten möchten, sowie für ihren Geschmack. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heirloom_tomato , https://translate.google.com
