Synopsis

Experience a unique blend of drama, music, and landscape as Cape Cod comes to life on stage. This historical pageant presents the formation of the Cape, key episodes from 1602 to 1915, and the enduring spirit that ties the region together. Rich with visual spectacle and lyrical moments, it pairs vivid stagecraft with practical, community-minded themes. The book behind the production explains how scenes balance accuracy with dramatic effectiveness, using spoken words from the period and carefully chosen omissions to fit the show.

- See the Cape’s landmark moments unfold, from Gosnold’s discovery to the bustling life of early settlements.
- Watch the sea, sands, and pines come alive through choreographed movement, lighting, and music.
- Follow interludes that frame the action, including a storm, a canal dream, and scenes of cooperative farming and service.
- Learn how the pageant blends history with modern civic virtues like heroism, cooperation, and community safety.

Ideal for readers who enjoy historical pageants, regional history, and stage adaptations that fuse art with local pride.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
