The Lantern Theatre - A Reading of the Declaration of Independence

Dunham Tavern Museum presents The Lantern Theatre's performance of "A Reading of the Declaration of Independence"
About this Event

"A Reading of the Declaration of Independence, Poor Richard's Almanac & Hits of the 1770s" has become a tradition for The Lantern Theatre. It contains music, songs from the period, comedy, original scenes written by Eric Schmiedl, wisdom, excerpts from Benjamin Franklin's Poor Richard's Almanac, and history, a reading of our founding document.

Put it all together, on the historic campus of Dunham Tavern Museum, and it's a great way to celebrate Independence Day weekend. The performance will take place outside in the Gray Garden behind Dunham Tavern and festive refreshments will be served.

Performances offered both Saturday, June 27 and Sunday, June 28 --tickets are limited, make your reservation today!

This event is also presented as part of Cleveland History Days, a week-long celebration of our city's rich legacy presented by Canalway Partners. Learn more and see the full schedule of events and participating organizations at http://clevelandhistorydays.com.
