Benjamin Franklinstein the Musical!
Adapted from the books by Matt McElligott and Larry Tuxbury
Music and lyrics by Michael Musial, Book by Matthew McElligott and Larry Tuxbury

Benjamin Franklinstein the Musical! is a new musical from the team that created Backbeard the Musical! Tori Godwin’s orderly life is suddenly turned topsy-turvy when she discovers that Benjamin Franklin has been hibernating in suspended animation in her basement for centuries. When a freak accident reawakens Ben, Tori and her friend Scott must help him adjust to life in the 21st century. Complicating the situation is the fact that when Franklin’s energy drops, he transforms into a rampaging monster, desperately (and dangerously!) hungry for electricity. Can two kids and a reanimated electric zombie patriot save the planet? Find out in Benjamin Franklinstein the Musical!
Recommended for all ages!
