Voices of Arrow Rock, Spirit of the Missouri Frontier

Tuesday, 17 December 2019 by shsmoweb

Voices of Arrow Rock, Spirit of the Missouri Frontier is a theatrical production bringing to life voices of early Arrow Rock citizens whose experiences help us understand what people’s lives were like during the early to mid-19th century on the Missouri frontier. These voices transcend time and geography and help give a platform for underrepresented voices of the past. The citizens include George Fenwick and Margaret Medley Fenwick, Burton and Nancy Lawless, Nelson and Dinah Robinson, and Adeline and Frank Switzler.

Friends of Arrow Rock as the sponsoring organization is partnering with the Arrow Rock Lyceum Theatre to develop and present the project. The Arrow Rock Premiere is August 7, 2021 at 10 am in the Christian Church on Main Street. There will be a second performance on August 8, 2021, at 2:30 pm at the Center for Missouri Studies in Columbia, MO.
