Description:
|
The Tony Award-winning musical 1776 has delighted audiences from around the world for more than 40 years. Set against the backdrop of the impending revolution, the show uses quick-witted dialogue and a playful score to dramatize the impassioned debates of Philadelphia’s Second Continental Congress. With General George Washington providing dispatches from the military front, patriots John Adams, Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson are hard at work persuading the 13 colonies to make the fateful leap to separate from British rule. Inspired by letters and memoirs of these founding fathers, this much beloved classic is at once a lighthearted and stirring tribute to the principles, pride and determination that quite literally put America on the map.
