Finally, a history lesson you won’t sleep through! 1776 is a light-hearted look at John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson as they grapple with the Continental Congress and independence from Britain. Inspired by the words of our founding fathers, this critically acclaimed musical comedy is filled with lively songs, witty dialogue, and true American spirit.
