There are a multitude of stories waiting to be discovered at the historic, 175 year old Bellefontaine Cemetery and Arboretum. The annual event “Voices at Bellefontaine” brings new life to the stories of those buried and memorialized there. In collaboration with theatre company Hawthorne Players, Bellefontaine puts on the outdoor theatrical experience throughout the cemetery grounds. Cemetery chronicler Dan Fuller and writer/director Larry Marsh talk with producer Darrious Varner about the lives of notable people buried at the cemetery, how their stories are rediscovered, and how Voices at Bellefontaine uses theatrical elements to preserve such history.
