Graham visited The Lost Colony ... click HERE for a photo video of their tour! The Lost Colony is the longest-running outdoor symphonic drama in the world. Since 1937, over four million people have seen this dramatization of the plight and mysterious disappearance of the first English settlers in America. Written by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, Paul Green, the show is produced summer nights by a company of more than 100 actors, dancers, singers and technicians. Witness epic battles and Indian dances. Experience the sorrow and heartbreak of tragedy and loss. Be awed at the pageantry of the Queen and her court. Celebrate the birth of Virginia Dare. The Lost Colony is the forerunner of the modern Broadway musical and is a triumph of the American Theatre! The 2012 season runs from June 1 to Aug. 23. Some 2012 dates to remember:
