A few photos from last night and tonight’s performances of 1776:

One last reminder … if you want to see the show (admission is free), the last showing is at 2:00 tomorrow (Saturday, Feb. 17). at Forrest Avenue United Methodist Church (just off Frazier Ave.). If you’re at all interested, you should come. I think we have a wonderful cast; I don’t think I’ll ever be able to watch the show again without thinking of each and every person who played the role with me.

That’s me (playing Joseph Hewes) complaining to Edward Rutledge (with the yellow ribbon in his hair; Chris Bean) after that obnoxious and disliked John Adams (and most of the rest of congress) interrupted me. Behind my blurred hand sits Judge Wilson (Randy Forrester). My father took this photo Thursday night.

John Adams (Barry Bradford), Dr. Franklin (Chuck Duesler) and Thomas Jefferson (Tracy Overman) want to know … what kind of bird is going to represent our new nation?

John Adams (Barry Bradford) reads a dispatch from General Washington.

John Dickinson (Greg Glover) tells Samuel Chase (out of the picture) that the liberals have just suffered a “slight setback.” George Read (Bryan Burt) is seated to his right.

Dr. Lyman Hall (Jamie Hudson) has decided to change his vote.

I’m somewhat disappointed that tomorrow’s performance is our last. We’ve all gotten very comfortable together on stage, so in a sense I wish we were running another three performances next week. On the other hand … this has pretty much taken over my leisure time, so it will be nice to have a break.

A gallery with my best photos from the production is forthcoming …
