For Love! For Liberty!
Step into the winter of 1775–76 and experience the extraordinary true story that helped save the American Revolution. For Love! For Liberty! is a vibrant new musical filled with original songs, dance, and unforgettable historical characters.
Follow the journey of young Boston bookseller Henry (Harry) Knox, who hauled sixty tons of cannon across frozen lakes and mountains to General Washington’s army—an audacious mission that changed the course of history. At the heart of the story is Lucy Knox, who defies her loyalist family, sacrifices her fortune, and sustains Harry’s courage with letters, love, and cake.
Bridging past and present, the story unfolds as middle-school history students work with teachers, grandparents, and the National Park Service to bring this remarkable moment in American history to life.
