Legend and Lies will feature several scenes filmed at Historic Halifax. Season two of the series debuts Sunday and much of the footage filmed at Historic Halifax is featured in the first four episodes.

In the spring, filming for an NBC special on Alexander Hamilton was completed in the Historic Halifax print shop. The production captures the historically accurate printing press in operation.

The immensely popular Hamilton Broadway musical received 16 Tony award nominations.

NBC will air the Hamilton special around the time of the June 12 Tony Award program.

Both Legends and Lies and the Hamilton special were directed by Kevin Hershberger of LionHeart Filmworks.

Season two of Legends and Lies focuses on legends surrounding the founding fathers.

Halifax stood in for colonial Boston and Philadelphia amid a week of interactions with patriots John and Abigail Adams, George Washington and Benjamin Franklin.

Several scenes were filmed in and around the site's six historic buildings.

The shooting included a special effects-created rain storm complete with flashing lighting.

Historic Halifax is open Tuesday through Sunday and visitors can see the colonial merchant's home, clerk's office, landowner's home, law office, tap room and jail.

A Taste of the Town tour and a Heart of Halifax tour each is given daily.
