Step back in time with guest storyteller Nicholas Waters of American Storytellers for an immersive, living-history performance that puts you right on the trail with two of the youngest explorers in American history! This high-energy performance brings to life the thrilling true saga of Louis "Bud" and Temple Abernathy—two young Oklahoma brothers who shocked the nation in the early 1900s. At just 6 and 10 years old, the boys mounted their horses and rode completely unsupervised from Oklahoma to Santa Fe and back. That daring trek was only the beginning, as they went on to make even more astonishing, long-distance journeys across the country, capturing the imagination of millions (including President Theodore Roosevelt). Rather than a typical history lecture, American Storytellers delivers a vivid, narrative-driven experience that brings historical figures off the page and onto the stage. Perfect for history buffs, families, and adventure lovers of all ages!
