The Cradle of Forestry is excited to present our outdoor drama, “The Legend of Tommy Hodges,” on Friday, October 25 and Saturday, October 26 at 7:30 p.m. each evening. Tickets are limited to a total of 75 participants per showing.
During this unique and exciting outdoor performance, audiences will travel back in time to the early 1900s and hear Appalachian yarns about the mysterious and unknown,; once told by the legendary Tommy Hodges, a fictional student of the Biltmore Forest School. Guests will be led around the Biltmore Campus Trail by different characters and watch as the story unfolds around them from all sides.
The show is a one-mile-long experience, as the audience walks the Biltmore Campus Trail to see the entire play. The story is best suited for ages six and up and approximately one-hour in length.
Audience members are asked to dress warmly, wear comfortable walking shoes, bring a flashlight, and although we love our pets as much as you, we ask that you please leave them at home. Ponchos and other rain gear are welcome if the weather is drizzly, but please leave umbrellas at home so everyone has a chance to see the show unobstructed.
The Legend of Tommy Hodges is a homegrown amateur production presented by FIND Outdoors Team Members and our Cradle hosts. The play is not based on historical facts and the script changes from year to year.
