Major site
American Shakespeare Center
I'm not sure what I'm doing.American Shakespeare Center plays at the Blackfriars Playhouse, a sensitive copy of an Elizabethan theatre. The reduced layout, bright light and proximity to actors produce a more carnal rhythm of performance than that of a large modern theatre.
Culture and heritage
Frontier Culture Museum
The Frontier Culture Museum brings together re-enactments of farms from Europe, Africa and America to tell about the migrations and cultural contacts of Shenandoah. Through the areas, we see the technical differences of a century of agricultural transformations, far from a unique discourse.
Culture and heritage
Natural Bridge
Natural Bridge is impressed by its limestone arch under which Cedar Creek continues to flow, transforming geology into almost architectural passage. From the path at the bottom of the gorge, the vault is better than from a simple high point. The freshness of the stream and the verticality of the walls give the site a very physical presence.
Culture and heritage
Virginia Military Institute
The campus Virginia Military Institute forms a very clear neo-Gothic architectural line facing the hills, with museums and chapel that illuminate the institutional history. The place is as much a memory architecture as a historical panorama of the Civil War in the Lexington fabric.
