Throughline Theatre Company presents Andre

Andre By William Dunlap May 10th - 18th Written in 1798, Andre is credited as the first truly American play, exploring the conviction and hanging of Major John Andre, who was implicated with Benedict Arnold as a spy for the British during the American Revolution. The play asks difficult questions about how to define treason and served to define an American character in terms of "we are not European".
