Coal Camp Memories [DVD]

Coal Camp Memories is a one-act play, written and performed by Karen Vuranch. Karen conducted historical research as well as many oral history interviews with those who lived in the coalfields and coalcamps of the Mountain State. The result celebrates the lives of women in coal communities in a tender and poignant story that will recreate an era and delight audiences. “Karen Vuranch’s Coal Camp Memories dramatically illuminates an often neglected but vital dimension of coal life and culture - the female perspective.” Dr. Fred Barkey, Professor Emeritus, Marshall University
