The Unfinished Broadside

The Unfinished Broadside is a powerful fusion of drama, music, and dance that uncovers the untold story of how Scotland and Ireland helped shape the birth of America.

Step back in time to 1776 and witness the untold story of John Dunlap, the printer entrusted with immortalising the Declaration of Independence. Amidst the fervour of revolution, Dunlap races against time to produce the nation’s first copies, guided by an unexpected visitor from the future. Blending history, intrigue, and a touch of time-travel magic, this play brings the birth of a nation to life with heart, humour, and the power of the printed word.

Marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, this stirring new production follows Dunlap — a boy who leaves his homeland behind, crosses the ocean alone, and finds himself at the heart of history, printing the words that would shape a new world.

This large scale production feaures some 40 performers including actors, dancers, singers and musicians.

A moving celebration of courage, identity, and the enduring ties between nations.
