Young Tom Jefferson

Runs September 28 - October 12, 2012 at Hanover Tavern, October 19 - November 2, 2012 at Willow Lawn. This fun, robust musical follows Thomas Jefferson from his birth in Virginia through his writing of the Declaration of Independence on the eve of the American Revolution. Amidst adversity, Tom continued his education, eventually studying law at William & Mary, and ultimately rose to the top ranks of leadership in Virginia and the new nation of the United States. Along with associates Patrick Henry, George Wythe, George Mason and Benjamin Franklin, young Thomas Jefferson helped to forge a national character that continues to guide us today.
