What is Chautauqua?
It's History Alive!
If you like something that holds you spellbound, entertains you and
incidentally teaches you - then you're going to love Chautauqua. We take
you on an astonishing journey into the past, where historic figures
appear on stage, and you question them - no holds barred! You laugh
with Mark Twain, get arrested with Rosa Parks, walk the Trail of Tears,
and debate the Constitution with its makers. It's interactive theater
performed by nationally acclaimed historical interpreters. And you, the audience, are always a part of the show. You laugh . . . you cry . . . you just flat out have a good time. And to top it off - the shows are FREE!
