Tecumseh! Outdoor Drama
Tecumseh! at Sugarloaf Mountain Amphitheatre
One of America's most popular outdoor dramas, staged in a mountain amphitheatre that retells the epic resistance of Shawnee leader Tecumseh.
Performed at the Sugarloaf Mountain amphitheatre since 1973, the show tells the story of Shawnee leader Tecumseh, who united several tribes to resist white expansion. Its spectacle includes cavalry charges, gunfire and fireworks, with performers running between the hillside and the stage, and it is quite stirring in the night air. The season runs from about mid-June to early September, with evening performances Monday through Saturday. Before the show you can join a backstage tour and a buffet dinner. Book tickets online in advance, and bring insect repellent.
