In the lens of today’s “cancel culture,” how would Thomas Jefferson hold up under scrutiny? In a program that has fascinated audiences cross-country, professional actor, improv and stand-up veteran Jason Kypros takes the role of prosecutor as Clay Jenkinson as Thomas Jefferson answers for his treatment of women’s rights, slavery, financial responsibility and the treatment of Native Americans. In this fun, informative and thought-provoking program, Kypros and Jenkinson put the legacy of Thomas Jefferson on trial, taking a look at the whole man who famously wrote “all men are created equal.”
