Speaking of rights, Abigail Adams said "Remember the Ladies." Upstairs at the Green Dragon, the Needle Guard goes full chaos: Mercy paints coal-black teeth, Sarah hefts a jug, Phillis hisses “Hurry,” and Abigail becomes a Drunken Maiden, so a coded message can get past a patrol. 🎭 #BroadsideMusical
The curtain falls after the famous echo of musket fire near Concord. Now picture this: Joseph Warren slips Paul Revere a fresh-off-the-press broadside, and a group of colonists gathers in a tavern to sign-up for the new army. History’s next act is already brewing!🎭

Abigail Adams tells Governor to "Remember the Women"
Governor kicks the Female Patriot out of the tavern, but with hidden secret messages
New fave moment from #BroadsideMusical: upstairs at the Green Dragon, Abigail/Mercy/Sarah sew secret messages into a petticoat while poor Dr. Warren wears it as a mannequin. Then “The Governor’s Fancy” mop-wig satire sneaks their spies past the redcoats. Photos ⬇️ #BroadsideTheMusical
Sam Adams dreaming with some of his pseudonyms
Sam Adams pseudonyms wreaking havoc in colonial Boston.
Sam Adams nods off at Edes & Gill while his writing pseudonyms; Populus, Candidus, Valerius Poplicola, A Chatterer, float out of the ink to rally the colonists. Broadsides fly, taverns buzz, and the British soldiers get haunted in all the best ways. 👻📰 #BroadsideMusical #NewWorks #AmericanRevolution
I'm trying to imagine what the Edes & Gill print shop in Boston looked like from the street. Inside, Boston’s revolution was taking shape. Sam Adams slipped in his pseudonyms (Vindex, Populus, Candidus), Revere etched history on copper, and truth found its sharpest edge in ink. 🎭 #broadsidemusical
