The evening will be completely interactive as
Meikle's "frankling" elicits questions and gently challenges the audience.
As one reviewer said, "It's magic to watch Bill Meikle put on a pair of
glasses and turn into Benjamin Franklin."
Bill Meikle has been performing Franklin for 24 years to schools,
colleges, corporations, conventions, and theaters throughout New England.
He has portrayed Franklin twice on public television and for this work has
won two Emmy awards.
