History in a dramatic nutshell!

actors portraying Washington's sailing across the Delaware.

Seven actors, two feet off the ground, share 21 square feet of space and recreate the American fight for independence, from Lexington to Yorktown. Using only the actors’ bodies, voices, and (pantomimed) cannons, the show evokes an epic time period in American history. Combining tongue-in-cheek humor with a dash of derring-do, “The American Revolution” is a rowdy, bare-boned, physical-theater take on history!
