Enjoy the trailer for Revolution's Edge, an original theatrical work commisioned by Old North Illuminated and Produced by Plays in Place.
Revolution's Edge takes us to the afternoon of April 18, 1775, hours before the signal lanterns would shine from Old North’s steeple. With war on the horizon, Old North's Loyalist rector, the Rev. Dr. Mather Byles Jr., is pushed to 'resign' his post. As Byles and Cato (an African man enslaved by Byles) prepare to leave the church for the final time, they encounter Capt. John Pulling Jr., a prominent member of the church congregation, ardent Patriot, and friend of Paul Revere. These three men share a faith but have very different beliefs concerning the right path ahead for themselves, their families, and the colonies. Their conversation explores the intersection of faith and freedom on the edge of the American Revolution.
