1776: The Musical @ ZAO
Lizz Reeves will be portraying Abigail Adams in this Tony Award Winning musical, 1776, that brings American history to life at Zao Theatre!
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 Richard Henry Lee 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.
As the wind of the election season blows out, it is heartening to recall the glorious debates and sacrificial compromises of our founding fathers. 1776 is a funny, insightful, and compelling drama with memorable music and a legendary story. You are sure to enjoy every word and every note.

Zao Theatre, 550 S Ironwood Dr, Apache Junction, AZ 85120
