Beverly-native Erin Burke-Moran was a guitarist with the band Caspian for years, performing in over 800 concerts, to fans in more than 40 countries.
When Erin and his wife Adrienne decided to hike the Appalachian Trail, it brought them in touch with the natural world and has since changed their lives.
Written in conjunction with playwright Michael Cormier, the new play celebrates discovery and provides a firsthand account of how this couple unplugged for six months and found joy along the 2,190+ mile long public footpath that traverses the scenic, wooded, pastoral, wild, and culturally resonant lands of the Appalachian Mountains.
Erin is a classically-trained musician and this new work features several original songs composed while on the Trial trail.
The special Earth Day program will feature a reading of scenes from the play, a video presentation with footage from the Appalachian Trail hike, and a talkback
