Together Tonight: Hamilton, Jefferson, Burr

Three prominent Americans debate the merits of unchecked immigration, national security, and civil rights. While it sounds like a contemporary, made-for-TV event, this confrontation takes place in 1799, with three of America’s Founding Fathers as participants: Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and Aaron Burr. Legendary radio dramatist Norman Corwin created this imagined discussion from the participants’ actual writings—proving that when it comes to politics, some things never change.

JD Cullum as Aaron Burr

Gregory Harrison as Thomas Jefferson/Mr. Pendleton

Henri Lubatti as Pickering/Others

Brian Tichnell as Alexander Hamilton/Barnaby

Directed by Alexis Jacknow. Recorded in Los Angeles before a live audience at The James Bridges Theater, UCLA in October of 2016.
