Bringing Original Works to Stage and Screen
Who We Are
At Proclamation Theatre we present original plays. Afterwards, Great Road Films produces them as movies. We explore themes of Appalachian history, social issues, life and death, American myth and legend. We believe in the power of storytelling to inspire, entertain, and provoke thought.
