The History Show - 1775 dramatizes a time when Boston is an occupied city: shots are fired on the Lexington town green; a protest turns into war and the world is forever changed.

Professional actors and musicians bring to life a year filled with ribaldry, superstition, piety, and idealism. Through this innovative audio program, your students can experience the confusion, the fear, and the heroism of our country's genesis.

About the History Show

The History Show is a combination of history and entertainment. Each program brings to life a year in American history through the music, humor, stories, and significant events of the period. One-hour programs are composed of short segments from 10 to 20 minutes in length that can be used in the classroom. Two pilot programs of The History Show are available -- one for the year 1775 and the other for the year 1857.
