About this Event

Was the Revolution a scam? Were the Founding Fathers idiots? The anonymous author of The Battle of Brooklyn; A Farce of Two Acts thought so!


Come down to the lawn at Old Stone House to enjoy this funny piece of 248-year-old propaganda – lovingly abridged, introduced, and directed by local historian Dylan Yeats.
