I am the fourth-grade Virginia Studies teacher at Kiptopeke Elementary. On Tuesday, November 20, 47 of my fourth-grade students and I attended the Arts Enter production of “Piece of Eden.” My students, my fellow fourth-grade teachers, and I loved this production. It tied in perfectly with our recent field trip to Jamestown, and my students made excellent connections to the history they had recently been learning. One of the highlights was that my ancestor, George Yeardley, was featured as he gave Thomas Savage permission to settle the Eastern Shore.

Congratulations to Clelia Shepard and the actors, musicians, and staff at Arts Enter for a wonderful production that explained the settling of this “Piece of Eden.”

Break a Leg!

“Piece of Eden” was so enjoyable and informative — the cast was amazing and my hat’s off to Clelia and her crew who created such an outstanding production from stage to costume to talented actors and actresses while retracing a part of our history on Virginia’s Eastern Shore!

I was moved and pleased to have learned just another tidbit of how it all came about.

Thank you,
Julie O’Donnell

Wish I could be there to see the play!! It looks fabulous!! We own a little piece of property at 622 Jefferson. We hope to build a house on it in the next five years. We have vacationed in Cape Charles and simply fell in love with the people and the beauty and history of this beautiful Piece of Eden. Well done!!! Sincerely, Cheryl
