The Spirit of '76 at Carpenters' Hall

A new play by Miriam Colvin & Jackson Pavlik celebrating the 250th anniversary of America's Independence.

It’s the Semiquencentennial Independence Day Celebration in none other than Independence Hall, Philadelphia, PA. The Historical Society is putting on a grand performance to recount the events of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The group, a mix of both actors and historians, ranging from Gen-Z to Boomer, struggle to mesh. Led by a neurotic Director and closely surveilled by a stressed-out Bureaucrat, the cast veers further and further from their goals of completing the script, just as the Founding Fathers once did.
