1776 at the Keith Albee
July 3 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Cabell County America 250th and Huntington Area Regional Theater proudly present 1776 — featuring the Huntington Symphony Orchestra!
Two performances — Thursday, July 2 & Friday, July 3! Witness the birth of a nation as our forefathers struggle to craft the Declaration of Independence. The seminal event in American history blazes to vivid life in this most unconventional of Broadway hits. 1776 puts a human face on the pages of history as we see the men behind the national icons: proud, frightened, uncertain, irritable, charming, often petty and ultimately noble figures, determined to do the right thing for a fledgling nation.
It’s the summer of 1776, and the nation is ready to declare independence… if only our founding fathers can agree to do it! 1776 follows John Adams of Massachusetts, Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania and Thomas Jefferson of Virginia as they attempt to convince the members of the Second Continental Congress to vote for independence from the shackles of the British monarchy by signing the Declaration of Independence.
Tickets go on sale at keithalbee.com on Friday, May 8, at noon!Don’t miss this powerful theatrical event celebrating America’s story
