Trumpet in the Land display at Dover Library

/ May 31, 2026

Coming Soon

The event

American history and Ohio heritage will be on display at Dover Public Library just as America celebrates its 250th Birthday. Designated as Ohio’s official play, Trumpet In the Land tells the inspiring story of David Zeisberger and his Christian Delaware followers as they struggle to preserve their peaceful settlement during The Revolutionary War. Staged in the very hills where the story is set, the massive outdoor drama has donated props and cast photos for display in our vestibule display case. “One of my fondest memories was traveling by RV with my Grandpa John and Grandma Helen to see Trumpet when I was about 10 or 11,” says Dover Public Library Adult Department assistant Steven Shroyer, “It is a really a fond memory and our display case curator Todd Trimble is doing an amazing job and really should be commended for his dedication and creativity.” Trumpet has changed its rehearsal schedule to allow more local talent as well which should be of note to the community. Dover Public Library is located at 525 North Walnut St in Dover Ohio and can be reached at 330-343 6123.
