The Tecumseh Outdoor Drama in Chillicothe:  Witness the epic life story of the legendary Shawnee leader as he struggles to unite the various tribes to drive the encroaching whites from their sacred homelands in the Ohio country during the late 1700s.

The enormous outdoor stages of the Sugarloaf Mountain Amphitheatre afford the audience a unique viewing experience.  You will sit beneath the stars in the beautiful Sugarloaf Mountain Amphitheatre as sheer spectacle surrounds you with a herd of galloping horses, live military cannons in action, and the most dazzling battle sequences offered on the American stage.

Seven-time Pulitzer Prize nominee and Emmy recipient Allan W. Eckert wrote this professionally produced outdoor drama.  The script has been acclaimed as the best of its kind in the outdoor drama industry and continues to fascinate thousands each summer.

Millions of visitors have witnessed this great outdoor drama, making it the most popular of its kind in the State of Ohio and the entire Mid-Western United States.

Enjoy an exciting “Behind-the-Scenes” Tour with cast members as your tour guides.  The stuntmen of TECUMSEH! give a dazzling display of stage combat and flintlock firing, then pitch headfirst from a twenty-one-foot cliff, get up, and explain how they did it.  The tours last approximately one hour and, along with detailed historical information, also include demonstrations of weaponry, stunts, and make-up, as well as explanations regarding communication systems and stage design.  Tours are offered at 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM.

Visit our Mountain Gallery Gift Shop, where you can find many unique and popular gifts.  Selections include jewelry, pottery, T-shirts, and books to serve as souvenirs of your evening at TECUMSEH!

During Meet and Greet, immediately following the performance, cast members will assemble in the pavilion area for autographs and photographs.  This is the perfect opportunity for you to talk to the actors one-on-one!
