The American Revolution

Combining tongue-in-cheek humor with a dash of derring-do, The American Revolution brings to life George and Martha Washington, King George III, Sam Adams, Paul Revere, John and Abigail Adams, Thomas Paine, and Thomas Jefferson to present audiences with the origin story of one of the greatest democratic experiments in world history.

In this 50-minute play, seven actors, all performing two feet off the ground, share 21 square feet of space to re-create the entire American fight for independence from Lexington to Yorktown. Using only the actors’ bodies, voices, and (pantomimed) cannons, the show evokes an epic time in American history.
