A Broadway Show With Every American President
by Jennifer Ashley Tepper - Aug 23, 2026

Theatre has always intersected with politics, and the presence of American presidents in Broadway, off-Broadway, and regional theatre plays and musicals is a major part of this. Did you know that all of our heads of state have been featured in shows, whether as characters or as plot points that are part of the action? Dramatizing current and former leaders of our nation is a way to examine their affect on society at the time and how political events, even those of many years ago, still impact us all.

Review: 1776 at EPAC
by Rich Mehrenberg - Jul 18, 2026

What better way to celebrate America’s 250th birthday than to see the musical, 1776?  Running through August 1st, this show spotlights the main obstacles and issues leading to America’s independence.  Perhaps the biggest lesson that the audience will come away with is that political bickering, backstabbing, and controversy is nothing new.  It’s naturally embedded in our national DNA.

Review: 1776 at Musicals At Richter
by Sean Fallon - Jul 12, 2026

On Saturday, July 11th, I had the pleasure of seeing yet another phenomenal production at Musicals at Richter, in Danbury, 1776. Seeing this show at this outdoor venue on a clear night is a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Robert Bria designed the set, which primarily depicts the inside of Independence Hall. Director David Halliwell, music director Andrew Gadwah, and choreographer Emma Kelly help bring out the best in this stellar cast! The stage chemistry and stage presence of this cast is so strong that the audience can easily forget that we are not watching an actual debate. I had never seen this show before and was quite impressed by how it draws the audience right in and consistently holds our attention. It was clear that the entire cast had fun performing.
