Snow Camp Outdoor Theatre

The Snow Camp Theatre is semi-professional theatre company in Snow Camp, an unincorporated community in southern Alamance County, North Carolina that brings the voices of the past into the hearts and minds of a modern audience from around the world by producing engaging historical dramas that inspire and entertain. Its two key plays over the years have been Pathway to Freedom (1994) by Mark Sumner. and The Sword of Peace (1973) by William Hardy. Both plays examine local Quaker involvement in past events, especially the Revolutionary War and the Underground Railroad. The plays are set within the local context of the Cane Creek Friends Meeting, a Quaker congregation established October 7, 1751, in what is now southern Alamance County. (Snow Camp was for a time part of Guilford County during the Revolutionary-era events of Sword of Peace). The Cane Creek meetinghouse is a few hundred feet from the amphitheater. In 2021, Studio 1 (a non-profit community theatre located in Burlington, NC) took over operations at Snow Camp Outdoor theatre. They have had four successful seasons of productions including the original historical plays as well as Shakespeare, fully produced musicals, children's shows, and seasonal festivals in the fall and winter.
