60 Seconds Preview: 1776 at the John W. Engeman Theater in Northport

1776 

At the John W. Engeman Theater

Northport, NY

Ring in the election year with 1776, the classic Tony Award®-winning musical about how the founding fathers drafted the Declaration of Independence and gave birth to a new nation. A unique show that presents John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin in all their fractious, fascinating complexity, 1776 features beloved songs such as “Sit Down, John,” “Cool, Cool, Considerate Men,” and “He Plays the Violin.” This show will remind you of how far America has come – and how little we’ve changed.

 

Dates: September 22nd – November 6th, 2016

Awards: Three Tony Awards® in 1969
