1776 at the Maine State Music Theatre - June 24, 2026 - July 11, 2026

Before there was a nation, there was a room full of arguments. In this stirring and surprisingly humorous musical, the Founding Fathers come to life as real, flawed, passionate individuals, clashing over independence, ideals, and the shape of a new country. With soaring songs and sharp dialogue, 1776 offers a powerful reminder that democracy is messy—and worth it. A fresh look at the birth of America that feels urgently relevant today.
