Lyrics by Bill Hand and James Merritt

This period musical tells the true story of Keith and Malinda Blalock, husband, and wife, who lived at Grandfather Mountain and enlisted in the Confederate army together. Well, not really together; he was initially unaware that she had disguised herself as a man to join him in his adventure. Bill Hand and James Merritt have joined to bring you this musical tale complete with book by Bill Hand brand new music from James Merritt.
