About

Colonial representatives gather in Philadelphia with the aim of establishing a set of governmental rules for the burgeoning United States. Benjamin Franklin and John Adams charge Thomas Jefferson with the task of writing a statement announcing the new country's emancipation from British rule.
Philadelphia in 1776 crackles with the chaotic, comedic energy of men arguing over ink and ideology in a sweltering room. This musical captures the messy friction of revolution through sharp wit and rhythmic debate.
