Franklin's Key 2026

During the War of Independence, the British feared that Benjamin Franklin could control the weather. But what if that were true? In an alternate universe where Franklin's most powerful inventions have been hidden for centuries, two high school prodigies must race against time to protect Franklin's undiscovered technology from shadowy forces. Set amid iconic Philadelphia landmarks, Franklin's Key blends our city's rich history with larger-than-life characters, sharply choreographed movement, and breathtaking stage illusions to create a pulse-pounding, brainy delight for adventurous theatergoers of all ages. Features stage illusions by Skylar Fox (Broadway's Harry Potter, Back to the Future). Historic landmarks like the Museum of Art, City Hall, Christ Church Burial Ground, and the Wanamaker Organ become portals to adventure.
