With the 250th birthday of our nation approaching this July 4th, Ford’s Theatre’s current attraction, the musical that tells the how the Declaration of Independence came to be, 1776 is indeed the best choice for this historic theatre to be presenting for the occasion. With a score by Sherman Edwards and a book by Peter Stone, 1776 ranks in my opinion as a perfect musical and there are only a handful of those.

GALA Hispanic Theatre will present the world premiere of AGUARDIENTE: WHERE MAGIC TRANSCENDS BORDERS in Washington, D.C. The new musical by Luis Salgado and Daniel Alejandro Gutiérrez will run April 30 through May 24. Tickets are now available.
