SECTION ONE—
Lost Colony Season
Off To Good Start
Performances Will Be
Given Nightly Except
Monday
Several thousand persons saw Paul
Green’s symphonic drama The Lost
Colony in Waterside Theatre at Man
teo on Roanoke Island during the first
performances of the current summer
season, according to General Mana
ger Dick Jordan. When the 1954
premiere of the drama was present
ed on Saturday night, it was the
show’s 653rd performance. Now the
longest lived of all outdoor produc
tions, the current year is the 14th
season for The Lost Colony.
Even though half of the company of
approximately 200 persons are new
this year, they became regular trou
pers after two or three days rehear
sal in the hot sun of day and the cool
breezes of evenings. More than two
thirds of the company members are
residents of Roanoke Island, where
English-speaking America had its be
ginning in the late 16th Century. Af
ter the discovery of Roanoke Island in
the New World, Queen Elizabeth first
named the new lands “Virginia in hon
or of her self, England’s virgin queen.
The story which The Lost Colony
tells is that of the colonization at
tempts in 1587„ and the events in Eng
land which had led up to the events
from the time the New World lands
had been discovered in 1584. The
drama also tells the story of the birth,
of Virginia Dare, first white child
bom in the New World and the dis
appearance of the band of colonists be
fore relief ships arrived. Disappear
ance of the colonists has become one
of the eternal unsolved history-mys
tery events of America.
This year The Lost Colony will have
performances nightly, except Monday
throughout the remainder of the sum
mer and until Labor Day Eve on Sep
tember 5. There has been no advance
in admission prices of the play. Dur
ing its 14 seasons more than 600,000
persons have seen th show.
