Franklinland on the Lindsay Family Stage at Granville Island

On the Lindsay Family Stage at Granville Island

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.
