The Play

Falcon Ridge, an original play written by David Gonzalez, explores life between 1800 and 1950 in a fictionalized rural, multi-racial communiiy somewhere in Ulster County. Drawing from personal accounts and historical research compiled by scholars, family members, and local citizens, Mr. Gonzalez has conjured up a tale that encourages audiences to examine their fascinating and often forgotten local history. The play centers around the complex relationship between long-time residents of Falcon Ridge and outsiders who buy a large property there. Packed with emotional power, the drama features original and traditional music performed by the acclaimed singer/songwriter Guy Davis.
