SUMMARY:Old Gods of Appalachia presents The Price of Progress\, a Live Theatrical Experience
DESCRIPTION:Buy Tickets\n\nOld Gods of Appalachia is an eldritch horror anthology podcast set in the darkest mountains in the world. Our world is an alternate Appalachia\, where these mountains were never meant to be inhabited. \nLong before anyone lived in these hills\, beings of immeasurable darkness and incomprehensible madness were entombed here. It was during this bygone age\, when the Appalachians towered much higher and more menacing than the gentle slopes and ridges we know today\, that they were conscripted after a great battle to serve as the final prison for those dark forces. But of course\, time marches inexorably on. Eons passed and the walls of the prison begin to wear thin. And Things that slumbered soundlessly below for millennia began to stir and become restless. \nThey began to call to those who would hear them. \nTo dig. To seek and find. To follow and serve. To keep this dark and bloody land for themselves and their masters. \nOld Gods is set in an alternate or shadow Appalachia. Our stories pass through hundreds of years of its history. This world feels eerily similar to the hills and hollers we’ve grown up with\, but there are some tell-tale differences. The names of towns and counties may be altered. Historical events slide forward or backward in time. \nThe characters depicted in this podcast are fictional. Any resemblance to actual persons is purely coincidental or the will of darker forces that we do not understand. \nDoors open at 7 p.m.\, show at 8 p.m. \n\n\nParking Info: \n\nThe Lyric Theatre is not responsible for parking and does not provide any free parking for events.\nParking meters are free after 6pm on weekdays and all day on Saturday and Sunday.\nPlease be aware of tow-away zones. Lots marked “permit parking only” are tow-away zones and they will tow your vehicle at your expense.

They are about to experience a captivating evening with a man whose engaging conversation and spontaneous humor made him one of the great raconteurs of his day.

Tolkien\, why he nearly abandoned the Narnia Chronicles\, how he came to embrace Christianity and of the American woman who turned his life upside down. David Payne’s AN EVENING WITH C.S.

Lewis (My Life’s Journey) and St. Jack & The Dragon a touching yet sometimes hilarious account about the relationship between Lewis and his adopted mother\, Janie Moore.
