Lesson Plan – William Still and The Underground Railroad

This lesson plan and resources are adapted from a performance of Sanctuary Road, a modern opera based on the writings of William Still, staged by the Penn Square Music Festival in collaboration with LancasterHistory. The materials, including a theatrical reading by Lenwood Sloan, offer an introduction to William Still and the local history of the Underground Railroad in Lancaster County. Educators will find a guide with FAQs, links to additional resources, and suggested activities and assignments to help students explore Still’s book and understand the significance of the Underground Railroad.
