"In 1937, The Lost Colony, Paul Green's dramatic retelling of the founding and mysterious disappearance of the Roanoke island colony, opened to standing-room-only audiences and rave reviews. Since then, the outdoor drama has played to more than 3 million people, and it is still going strong.
Produced by the Roanoke Island Historical Association at the Waterside Theatre near Manteo, North Carolina, The Lost Colony has run for more than sixty summers almost without interruption. (Production was suspended during World War II, when the threat of German submarines prowling the coast made an extended blackout necessary.)".
"The model for modern outdoor theater, The Lost Colony combines song, dance, drama, special effects, and music to breathe life into shadowy legend. This rendering of the play's text, edited and with an introduction by Laurence Avery, brings this pioneering work back into print."--BOOK JACKET.
