On Eagle's Wing
A musical, a dance show, and an oratorio all rolled into one. Filmed on the vast stage of Belfast's Odyssey Arena in Northern Ireland, John Anderson's work tells the story of the Scots-Irish - their humble beginnings in the Lowlands of Scotland in the late 1600s, their flight from persecution by the English, their arrival in Ireland and their continuing journey to America in the 1700s, where these pioneers first opened up the frontier.
