You’ve heard about founding fathers Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Franklin, Hamilton and Madison. Have you heard about Prince Whipple, Wentworth Cheswell, Colonel Tye, Sojourner Truth and Phillis Wheatley — the forgotten founding fathers of Black history? The Forgotten Founding Fathers is a theatrical, hip-hop dance odyssey written and produced by Karl "Dice Raw" Jenkins that explores American history through the lens of African American heroes during some of the country's most pivotal times, including the American Revolution, Civil War and Reconstruction. This captivating show spotlights heroes such as Prince Whipple, Wentworth Cheswell, Colonel Tye, Sojourner Truth and Phillis Wheatley. Unlike other historical education that highlights the pain and suffering of African Americans, The Forgotten Founding Fathers aims to teach the contributions of African Americans to the country.

A ticket is required for every person attending the show, regardless of age.
