Production details
Actor and writer Dominic Allen and director Joe Hufton bring Thomas Paine back from the dead to tell his incredible story: the pirate who invented America, the corsetmaker that inspired the French Revolution, and the ordinary man who built an extraordinary bridge. This gripping solo show takes you from Norfolk street to American battlefield, from ship to shore, in a whirlwind historical adventure. Empires will shake, kings will fall and a nation will rise. It's time for one man to stand up and begin the world anew.
