Explore Promises made by the
Declaration of Independence
A Narrative Performance and Conversation
What does the Declaration of Independence mean today and what did it mean to citizens throughout the Heritage Area when it was conceived and debated during their lifetime? This thought-provoking public performance piece explores these questions by integrating a reading of the Declaration of Independence with first person accounts. As the 18th century words and ideas are performed, the narrator explores their meaning to challenge the audience to consider their relevance and power today.
