Still isolated from one another due to the Siege of Boston, Rachel desperately tries to create a plan to safely take her children: six step-children from Paul's first marriage and a newborn baby of their own, from the reach of the British Regular Army in Boston. In this program, audience members will help Rachel as she carefully considers the dangers and demands of each plan. Find out if Rachel is successful in her perilous mission to unite her family, amidst the wake of an American Revolution. Event includes the audience-participation performance, Q&A, and a short talk on 18th century geography of Boston and key figures in the performance.
