What To Know About This Production

What better time to stage 1776 than during the 250th anniversary of our country? This unconventional Broadway hit brings the founding of America to life, revealing the real people behind the legends — proud, uncertain, irritable, funny, and ultimately noble. Set in the summer of 1776, the story follows John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson as they struggle to convince the Continental Congress to declare independence from Britain. With sharp wit, a powerful score, and timeless relevance, 1776 reminds us that history was made not by perfect heroes, but by passionate individuals determined to do what was right for a fledgling nation.
