Strike At the Wind

“Strike at the Wind” is an outdoor drama held in the amphitheater of the Lumbee Tribe Cultural Center. The play chronicles the life of Henry Berry Lowrie, who led a band of men in a seven-year conflict against the Confederate Home Guard after the unjust killings of his father and brother. It highlights vigilante justice, resistance, and the active fight for the Lumbee people’s rights during the post-Civil War era in North Carolina.

Tickets are available through the ticket office of Given’s Performing Arts Center ( https://www.uncp.edu/community-and-culture/givens-performing-arts-center/index.html) and at the entrance of the Lumbee Tribe Cultural Center, the night of the performance.  The venue opens at 5:45pm.  Pre-show entertainment begins at 6:15pm and the drama begins at 7:00pm.
