FRANKLINLAND - Arts Club Theatre Company

Sure, Benjamin Franklin may have been one of the greatest scientific minds of all time, but that totally did not make him a great dad. What was it like to be the only son of this legend in his own time? Pressure, much? With contemporary wit and a sharply critical perspective, this irreverent comedy satirizes Franklin and his prodigious vanity, poking at the tension that grows between cherished ideals—of family, of an American republic—and their imperfect reality.
