Question

Write a scene from a play in which colonists in a small town react to the news of the Battle of Lexington. Remember, not all colonists wanted independence from Britain.

Answer 1

In a small town, people are divided into two opposing sides. Those who support the British rule are called Loyalists while those who are against the colonizers are the Patriots. Most of the Loyalists hold office positions and felt that the British will win the war. However, the Patriots still want to gain independence from the colonizers.
