For 56 straight years, Valdese's Old Colony Players have brought the dramatic tale of the Waldensians to life with their flagship show, "From This Day Forward." Led by new director Hunter Curtis, the play recounts the compelling history of the Waldenses, from persecution in Europe to their settlement in Burke County, North Carolina. With a mix of history, drama, and entertainment, the production captivates audiences with a powerful story of faith, struggle, and perseverance. Patrons can expect an educational yet thrilling experience as they witness the tragedies and triumphs of the Waldensians, making it a must-see summer event at the Fred B. Cranford Amphitheater.
