The story of local legend, David Creigh. During the Civil War, Creigh, a prominent citizen of Lewisburg, returned home to find a Federal soldier ransacking his house. The men fought and the soldier was killed. What happened next inflamed passions in the area. “When an event makes an impression on the mind of a mountaineer, that impression is more than apt to linger a long time.” - Clarence Donnelly. This production is part of GVT’s celebration of West Virginia’s Sesquicentennial Anniversary.
