This performance, appropriate for Grade 5 students, is presented by Theater Unspeakable. History in 50 minutes—seven actors, two feet off the ground, share 21 square-feet of space to recreate the entire American fight for independence from Lexington to Yorktown. Using only the actor’s 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 displays Theater Unspeakable’s rowdy brand of bare-boned and imaginative physical theater.
