Canceled – What Entertained the Founding Fathers– Robert Viagas

February 1 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Due to the cold this event will be canceled and rescheduled after the thaw!

 

The hit Broadway musical Hamilton showed the Founding Fathers (and Mothers) rapping and dancing. But what did they actually do for entertainment? Yes, they danced, but what kinds of dances? Yes, they sang, but what kinds of songs? Yes, they attended the theatre and listened to concerts, but which shows? And where? What stimulated their imaginations as they were forming a new nation? Robert Viagas lays it all out for you with samples and descriptions that will help to humanize the giants who created the United States 250 years ago.

 

Free for BVHS Members, $5 for non-members.
