Liberty! The Saga of Sycamore Shoals
Each year, during the last three weekends of July, Sycamore Shoals State Historic Area goes back in time as a volunteer cast of actors and crew members present Liberty! The Saga of Sycamore Shoals. This annual production is the Official Outdoor Drama of the State of Tennessee.
Liberty! tells the stories of the earliest settlers in the region and some of the important historic events that transpired here. Nationally significant events that helped to shape the future of our nation before, during, and after the American Revolution are presented in an engaging, exciting, and entertaining fashion.

The drama is set in front of the full-scale replica of Fort Watauga on the grounds of Sycamore Shoals State Historic Area.
Liberty! tells the stories of these important days of American history as well as demonstrating the life of pioneers in a frontier settlement. Moreover, it gives faces to the names we see on many of our street signs and other local area designations.
Liberty! runs Thursdays-Saturdays during the last three weekends of July.
