Celebrate 250 years of American independence! Witness the “obnoxious and unlikeable” John
Adams attempt to ignite a revolution in the Tony Award-winning musical that breathes fire into
American history. Set in the sweltering heat of a Philadelphia summer, this high-stakes political
thriller brings the story behind the creation of the Declaration of Independence to the stage with
witty satire, fierce debates, and the fragile alliances of the Second Continental Congress.
