Mission of the Erie Canal Drama Theatre

The specific purpose of the Erie Canal Drama Theatre is to portray and celebrate the human drama of the creation and utilization of the Erie Canal and its impact upon our nation primarily by means of dramatic productions. The public objective of this purpose is to bring live audiences performances which shall enhance their understanding of the genius of those who conceived of the Erie Canal, the talent of those who planned and engineered it, and the strengths, deprivations, and burdens of the laborers who built the canal with the hope those audiences will bestow upon this grand peaceful accomplishment reverence equal to that which they bestow upon battlefield monuments.

Our play, Clinton's Ditch, celebrates the history of the building of the Erie Canal. 2017 is the 200th anniversary of the start of the work on the canal and thus is an appropriate time for performing this play. If you are interested in honoring those who sacrificed much to change history through live theatre, and would like to produce our play, please contact us at: canaltheatre@gmail.com
