One of the most significant actions during the American Revolution occurred in Westchester County. General Benedict Arnold’s treasonous plot to give West Point to the British got thwarted by three farmer-soldiers in central Westchester. Had Arnold’s co-conspirator, British Major John André, gotten through to New York City, America may have lost its Revolutionary cause. Performing in period dress, Master Storyteller Jonathan Kruk engages audiences in this most compelling story of the fight for Independence.
