1776
Friday July 24 at 7:00pm
Saturday, July 25: 2:00pm
Sunday, July 26 at 2:00pm
Directed by Douglas Anderson
Musical Direction by Jennifer Allred
This year, to honor the 250th anniversary of American Independence, Town Hall Theater's Young Company will perform 1776, the Tony Award-winning hit from 1969, by Sherman Edwards and Peter Stone. This is the 12th production in the popular series of summer musicals performed by teens, under the direction of Douglas Anderson.
The musical focuses on the struggle of the Continental Congress to produce the Declaration of Independence. Characters include Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin and John Adams.
“The show is quite funny, and the music is really wonderful, but it’s also a great history lesson,” says Anderson. “We forget that the 13 colonies weren’t particularly fond of each other.” The delegates argued over such controversial subjects as slavery, and even whether to join together as one country. “South Carolina would have been quite content to become the Independent Country of South Carolina. It had no use for the Northerners,” says Anderson.
The show is notable for its historical accuracy, using historical facts and even quotes from actual letters between John and Abigail Adams. | Reserve Tickets |

Atom & the Orbits
Friday, August 7 from 5:30 to 7pm outdoors on the Tilly Stage at the Maloney Plaza
A Vermont band built for dancing brings groove-heavy Americana and rock to the plaza.
The 5 Fridays Concert Series brings free outdoor music to Maloney Plaza on the first Friday of each month from June through October, made possible by a generous grant.
Atom & the Orbits is led by Vermont musician Noah Hahn. After a decade of playing in two-step bands from Vermont to Louisiana, Hahn assembled the band as what he calls a "rocket ship" for a bigger sound. The result fuses groove-driven Americana, rock, and roots rhythms into something built for movement.

5 Fridays Concert Series
Block Party: Billy Wylder, DJ Serena Kim, & More Surprises
Friday, September 4 from 3 to 8pm outdoors on the Tilly Stage at the Maloney Plaza
Five hours of music with a Burlington art-rock headliner, a beloved local DJ, and more surprises still in store.
The 5 Fridays Concert Series brings free outdoor music to Maloney Plaza on the first Friday of each month from June through October, made possible by a generous grant.
Billy Wylder is a Burlington, Vermont art-rock band led by singer-songwriter Avi Salloway. The band's sound pulls from American folk and rock, African rhythms, art-rock textures, violins, synths, and groove-heavy percussion. The influences trace back to Salloway's years touring with Tuareg guitarist Bombino and to stages including Coachella, Newport Folk Festival, and Carnegie Hall.
Salloway also created the All Rivers project, a cross-cultural musical collaboration that recently sold out at the Flynn Center in Burlington.
DJ Serena Kim is a Middlebury favorite. Co-owner of the Swift House Inn, she's been one of the most in-demand DJs in town, with sets at Town Hall Theater, Crooked Ladle, and the Henry Sheldon Museum. Before settling here, she was one of the first female club DJs in New York City in the 1990s, sharing stages with Mark Ronson, Q-Tip, and Kool Herc.
More acts and surprises are still in the works. Check back closer to the date for updates.
Food trucks, Good Times Co. charcuterie, and bar offerings will be available for purchase.
Bring a chair or a blanket. A limited number of folding chairs will be available.

Session Americana with Kris Delmhorst
Sunday, September 13 at 5:30pm on the historic Rothrock Mainstage
Relax at candlelit cabaret tables or settle into traditional theater seating for an intimate, raucous evening featuring original music and works from throughout the American Songbook. The bar will be open throughout the night.
SESSION AMERICANA is a Boston based cast of top-shelf players, singers, and writers who tour internationally, taking their own songs, plus hundreds more from the American songbook, on the road. You’ll be a part of the intimate, raucous scene these players built years ago with one simple credo— access the joy. And with friend and collaborator Kris Delmhorst playing in the band, that joy has never been more apparent. A rock band in a teacup or a folk band in a whiskey bottle? Take your pick. Swapping instruments, trading off lead vocals and sharing songwriting credits, Session Americana is constantly exploring new collaborations and touring like a band out of time.
The show runs in our cabaret configuration: tables for four mixed with riser seating.
THT's bar will be open throughout the evening, offering cocktails, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages. | Reserve Tickets |
