Presenter Award – Clear Creek Creative’s Ezell: Ballad of a Land Man

The Green Music Center received an award for funding to support a theater piece, Ezell: Ballad of a Land Man. It is an environmental, cultural and spiritual parable derived from living in the foothills of Appalachia, one man among many seeking to make sense of the time, place and condition in which we live.  In the story, Ezell’s choices, traumas, ancestors and more intersect with themes of domination and resilience as he seeks to take advantage of an anticipated fracking boom and the opportunity to reconnect with the people and land of his raising.
