Lorain County Metro Parks and TrueNorth Cultural Arts are pleased to present the original play, Freedom’s Light: A Stop Along the Underground Railroad at the French Creek Nature Center Thursdays through Sundays May 1 to May 17. Shows begin at 7:30pm on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and at 3pm on Sundays. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased by calling 1-800-LCM-PARK or (440) 949-5200 or by clicking here.

Freedom’s Light: A Stop Along the Underground Railroad is a play of hope and freedom. In the days leading up to the Civil War, helping slaves escape to freedom became increasingly dangerous — especially in Northern Ohio. Only the bravest of conductors on the Underground Railroad continued defying federal orders to stop helping slaves — and Robbins and Eliza Burrell of Sheffield Village, Ohio were two of those daring conductors who refused to stop. Federal marshals raided their home countless times, yet they were never caught. No one knows how they evaded detection — but Freedom’s Light: A Stop Along the Underground Railroad suggests one possible way as it shares the story of Nellie as she courageously flees slavery so that her baby could live in freedom.

Freedom’s Light: A Stop Along the Underground Railroad was written by Kelly Boyer Sagert and is directed by Rick Fortney. This play is sponsored by the Lorain County Metro Parks, TrueNorth Cultural Arts, The Morning Journal and the Lorain County Urban League. French Creek Nature Center is located at 4530 Colorado Ave, Sheffield Village, Ohio 44054. For more information about this play and to purchase tickets, call 1-800-LCM-PARK or (440) 949-5200.
