"Faith of Our Fathers"

Faith of Our Fathers – Concert performance with narration and historical dramatization, 11:00 am to 12:00 pm in Sale Theatre, Schoolfield Hall. Celebrate a century in song and learn about Ferrum College history. One of the oldest buildings on campus, Schoolfield Hall was the original chapel for the rural training school, later a gymnasium and more, before it became home to the Sale Theatre, the Rex Stephenson Theatre, and the Blue Ridge Dinner Theatre. In this uplifting free performance, with the last script written by Rex Stephenson and direction by Emily Blankenship-Tucker, we’ll take a fun trip through the building’s first hundred years at Ferrum College. Reservations recommended but not required, at https://www.ferrum.edu/theatre-tickets.
