America’s Premiere Outdoor Drama

Dear Fellow Travelers,

Do you feel the mystery? Has a sense of history surrounded you? Does the rustle of ancient oaks echo with cries of early settlers? Does the rumble of native drumbeats haunt the night air? Can you feel the arm of history beckon you to explore America’s greatest unsolved mystery?

What happened here more than four centuries ago? What of those 85 men, 17 women and 13 children? What are we to make of the letters CRO carved into a tree near where we come together tonight?

And why do we care? Pioneering English settlers were not first to inhabit this land. Native tribes thrived throughout the region and lived with a strong sense of social order. To the south, Spain established settlements in St. Augustine by 1565, almost two decades before the English took possession of where we are gathered.

How best to understand The Lost Colony? Our story is a dramatic interpretation drawn from historic records and conjecture, eloquently blended with poetry and music and dance by Pulitzer Prize-Winning North Carolinian, Paul Green. Take a moment to see sculptor William Hipp III’s bust of Paul Green at the rear of Waterside Theatre.

Now in its 81st summer season, The Lost Colony began as the vision of area residents unselfishly committed to preserving the story of Dare and those early English colonists who endured the 5,000-mile journey to new lives in a mysterious, unknown world. That same spirit continues to inspire subsequent generations of directors of the Roanoke Island Historical Association, a non-governmental nonprofit. Together, with an annual company of more than 120 artistic leaders, actors, singers, dancers, technicians and theatre managers, we are honored and humbled to keep the dream alive.

To appreciate tonight’s performance further, we encourage you to continue pursuing the mystery of the Lost Colony. Stop by the National Park Service Visitor’s Center adjacent to Waterside Theatre. Visit other Roanoke Island attractions. Linger in downtown Manteo. Learn about iconic lighthouses that dot the Outer Banks. See where Orville and Wilbur Wright in 1903 inaugurated the era of powered flight. And enjoy miles of the finest family beaches.

Thank you for attending The Lost Colony. We hope you will let your imagination wrestle with how you would solve America’s greatest unsolved mystery!

Regards,

William P. Massey Chairman
