It's the summer of 1776, and the nation is ready to declare independence......if only our founding fathers can agree to do it!  

Follow John Adams of Massachusetts, Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania, and Richard Henry Lee and Thomas Jefferson of Virginia as they attempt to convince the members of the second Continental Congress to vote for independence from the shackles of the British monarchy by signing the Declaration of Independence. A funny, insightful, and tension-filled story with a striking score and legendary book.

1776 features beloved songs such as “Sit Down, John,” “Cool, Cool, Considerate Men,” and “He Plays the Violin.”
This show will remind you of how far America has come – and how little we’ve changed. Winner of three Tony Awards® in 1969
