The North Carolina Museum of History is seeking actors for It’s Revolutionary!, an original video series commemorating the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution. This dynamic 20-part series will blend documentary storytelling with engaging narrative elements, bringing North Carolina’s revolutionary past to life for students, educators, and the public.
It’s Revolutionary! is a multiyear educational initiative of the museum’s K-12 Outreach Branch, Beyond the Exhibits. This effort explores North Carolina’s role in the American Revolution through engaging programs, materials, and resources based on primary and secondary sources. It’s Revolutionary! also includes upcoming Educator Notebooks, online teacher workshops, History-In-a-Box kits and more. “This project brings history to life in a way that is both engaging and educational,” said Sally Causey Bloom, curator of education at the North Carolina Museum of History. “By combining documentary and narrative storytelling, we hope to spark curiosity and a deeper understanding of this pivotal chapter in our nation’s history. We want everyone to know that they make history, too!”
