John Muir: Father of Our National Parks at History At Play

History At PlayTM, LLC has garnered nationwide acclaim for their Immersive Living History Experiences, chronicling the lives of legendary trailblazers who changed society. In John Muir: Father of Our National Parks, HAP, LLC presents Living Historian J.T. Turner in a first-person, living history performance, recalling the life of one of the United States' most renown and impactful conservationists, John Muir (1838-1914). Award-winning playwright and performer J.T. Turner transports us from Muir's childhood in Scotland; through his years as an engineer, inventor and explorer; to his fight to preserve the wilds of America. Using passages from Muir's own works and a depth of research into his life and times, Turner celebrates the life of a great American immigrant, philosopher, and writer, known as the Father of Our National Parks.
