To fight for the dominance of the Union or the rights of its states? Such a decision destroyed many lives in the South during the Civil War.

But here in Appalachia, it resulted in the creation of a new state -- West Virginia. A state born out of a nation torn that was Union loyal and populated by a hard-nosed new breed of American.

Honey in the Rock chronicles the tumultuous birth of the Mountain State through the lives of some of its real and imagined residents.

It's a romping, rollicking, vibrant historical performance filled with drama, intrigue, music, comedy and romance.
