2026 marks the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. “American Dream Deferred” is an original musical revue exploring American hopes and dreams, fears and frustrations, tears, joy, and rage. Through musical theater pieces, rock/pop songs, and protest anthems, we examine where the American dream has fallen short–and we share our hope that one day we will all be able to live our dreams. Likely songs include West Side Story’s “America,” Irving Berlin’s “Give Me Your Tired, Your Poor,” and Suffs’ “Keep Marching,” along with songs from Hairspray, In the Heights, Rent, Ragtime, and more!
