The North Star

The North Star tells the story of Benjamin "Big Ben" Jones and Moses Hopkins, two slaves who escaped from a Virginia plantation in 1849 and found freedom in Buckingham, Pennsylvania. Big Ben's 6 foot 10 inch stature, combined with a record bounty for his safe return, makes him the target of every slave hunter on the east coast. Their journey exposes them to danger and cruelty, but it also exposes them to the unexpected kindness of the Underground Railroad passengers. Ben and Moses will be forever changed as a result of their experiences. Ben and Moses get to experience life as free men after reaching the relative safety of Mt. Gilead Church on Buckingham Mountain, where they meet historical figures like Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, Joshua and Jonathan Fell. Their freedom also allows them to witness heroism, romance, and betrayal. LuckPig Studios wrote the piece.
