Dickinson was a hero of the founding era. Let's hope that an "unlikable" portrayal won't taint his memory.

It was the movie 1776 that made me want to research John Adams and eventually made him one of my favorite presidents.

I am glad to see that this troupe is making 1776 memorable, and in my opinion, this play as well as Stan Freiberg's The United States of America should be a double feature and an annual production around this country.

It was a nice production but not as powerful or potent as RMT's 1776 last year.
