Happy July 4th! This year brings with it renewed attention and consideration of what America stands for as we look towards making diversity, inclusion and equity important measures of our efforts towards realizing the best of those ideals. Theater as well must during our reopening look to tangible ways to bring diversity, inclusion and equity to our community and work, moving from ideal to realization.
1776, with a book by Peter Stone, music & lyrics by Sherman Edwards and directed by Peter Hunt, opened on March 16, 1969 at the 46th Street Theatre, now known as the Richard Rodgers Theatre, (which in a wonderful moment of theatrical symmetry, is the current home of Hamilton.) Both are examples of theater, both entertaining and thought-provoking and are rather timely reminders to us that America has a history of ideals that emerged from open debate and the exchange of ideas essential to its core existence.
The Egg performed by Ken Howard (Thomas Jefferson), Howard Da Silva (Benjamin Franklin), and William Daniels (John Adams) reprising their Broadway roles in the film version of 1776.Read More »A 1776 Happy 4th of July
