  
Benjamin Franklin traces Franklin's epic life from humble beginnings to fame as a scientist, founding father, and America's first diplomat to France. Tony Award-winner Richard Easton and a cast of distinguished actors bring Franklin's 18th-century world vividly to life. Surprising, moving, and full of Franklin's own wit and wisdom, Benjamin Franklin is the exuberant portrait of a true American original.
In three sections: Let the Experiment Be Made (1706-1753), The Making of a Revolutionary (1755-1776), and The Chess Master (1776-1790).
