Old Quarry Amphitheatre "The Glory Road""The Glory Road" recaptures the color and adventure of that period when Fort Clark was at the height of its glory.  In this original script by the well-known playwright Kermit Hunter, the old fort comes to life under the oak trees beside Las Moras Spring. 

 

There's romance!  A handsome young lieutenant falls in love with a Brackettville beauty.  There's an Indian raid and a daring rescue.  There are old-time songs and country dancing, and more dancing by visitors from Mexico.

 

History comes to life!  You will be transported to the times when the cavalryman rode forth to protect the rancher, and his lonely sweetheart awaited his return.  In the words of the old cavalry song, "Round her neck she wore a yellow ribbon for her lover was far, far away."  John Bullis, Ranald McKenzie, Jonathan Wainwright and George Patton have their moments as the story of Fort Clark's part in the defense of the frontier and of the nation unfolds.

 

"The Glory Road" is a production of The Old Quarry Society for the Performing Arts, a Texas non-profit theater whose base of operations is the Old Quarry Amphitheatre at Fort Clark Springs.
