Scenes of the must see original play, Railway To Heaven, performed by College of the Ozarks' students at the college's Keeter Center on November 8, 2016. (The limited run of play occurred in October and November ... Check the play's site for current availability.) The play is a dramatic depiction of the experiences of Pfc. Roy Hopper ... based on the book, Miracle in the Ozarks, by Jerry C. Davis, president of College of the Ozarks. Roy was a School of the Ozarks student who was drafted into the Army in 1943 to serve in WWII. He was involved in the invasion of Normandy in France, only to later be captured by the German Army. He endured torture, the death of his best friend, and witnessed unimaginable atrocities at the hands of the Nazis. It is the powerful and touching story of a true American hero.
