Written by Peter Sham of Cedar City, UT, this play follows Benjamin Franklin as he materializes in the modern day as part of a theatrical parlor show hosted by a historian who knows everything about him. The two discuss modern life, philosophy, and the complex legacy of the founding fathers. It is presented as a staged reading followed by a post-show discussion as part of the 2026 Kayenta New Play Lab.
