Heritage of Lancaster County,” written by Beverly Lewis and written for the stage by Emmy-Nominated screenwriter Martha Bolton. Katie Lapp, a young Amish girl, discovers her parents have been keeping a secret from her... she is adopted. Katie decides to seek her birth mother, defying the rules of her Amish village and risking a shunning.
Meanwhile, her wealthy birth mother, Laura Mayfield, battling an illness that might take her life, begins searching for her long-lost daughter to bequeath her inheritance before it is too late. Secretly plotting against her is the gold-digging husband Dylan (John Schneider), who is scheming to make sure he inherits her fortune. With the help and prayers of her Christian maidservant (Chonda Pierce), they try to foil Dylan’s plan and reunite Katie and Laura.

The play is a mixture of a dramatic story of secrets and separations that touch the heart and the music and merriment give the play an entertainment value to delight audiences. However, with a running time of 3 hours, I wouldn't advise bringing children. There is an intermission, but it's just long enough to stretch your legs, have a restroom break and maybe refill snacks. This is better suited for grown-ups, maybe even a Girl's Night Out event.
