Join the Revolution!

The Crossing: A Revolutionary New Musical

Farmers, wainwrights, coopers, students, printers, millers - the common denizen of colonial America who followed George Washington into the Delaware River Christmas Night 1776 to attempt a feat altogether uncommon. 

This is their story. 

The unsung heroes of the revolution.

They shall not be forgotten.

Amid this seemingly tragic time, a few men and women found the courage and determination to change history. In the immortal words of Thomas Paine, they proved to be the opposite of summer soldiers who would shrink in the service of their country in its hour of desperation. No more defeat! No more retreat was their cry! Our history books immortalize Generals Washington, Greene, Knox, and Mercer, but overlook the names of the many men and women who gallantly carried out their leaders’ goals and plans. Prepare now to meet James, Gabriel, Jacob, Margaret and Abigail, who together helped to secure a newly independent nation founded on principles of freedom.
