History Alive! featuring Forbes Road Frolic

Don’t miss this special 4th of July holiday weekend performance of colonial-era tavern music performed by Forbes Road Frolic! Included with regular admission.

The historical costumed duo of Chuck Krepley and Gary Smith bring to life the music of an 18th century British American tavern with their period instruments, spirited tunes, and songs. Forbes Road Frolic looks forward to entertaining the Fort’s visitors with an enjoyable authentic, colonial tavern musical experience.

History Alive! at Fort Ligonier is an engaging experience for visitors to learn more about the daily life of a frontier military outpost in North America during the 18th century. Through daily programming depicting typical activities of a military site such as soldiering, manual labor, tailoring, laundry, and cooking, and special weekend demonstrations from 18th century artisans, History Alive! portrays the people who fought and lived at Fort Ligonier during the Forbes Campaign of 1758

This educational program is made possible by a #PreservingAmerica grant from Americana Corner.
