The official outdoor drama of Tennessee is ongoing and is in its 46th season. The Liberty Saga focuses on the establishment of the Watauga Settlement, formed in 1772, and the gathering of the Overmountain Men, who were part of the militia that defeated Major Patrick Ferguson at the Battle of Kings Mountain in 1780. Names of historical figures like John and Robert Sevier, Cherokee Dragging Canoe and Catherine “Bonnie Kate” Sherill will come to life, as well as many others. The outdoor drama features professional sound and lighting and an all-local cast of nearly 100 actors.
