Lynn Poole describes the two formative revolutions during John Locke's lifetime (1632-1704): the Puritan Revolution and the Glorious Revolution. Costumed actors examine Locke's ideas on government that led to his 1690 publication of "Two Treatises of Government," on natural rights theory and the social contract. Locke argued that all governments are a contract between the governing and governed and that the government rests on the consent of the governed. Lynn Poole reads from Locke's "A Letter Concerning Toleration," a religious tract. Subsequent acted scenes show Locke's later influence: a 1750 rationalist claims the most influential works are the Bible and Locke's publishings, such as "Some Thoughts Concerning Education," and "An Essay Concerning Human Understanding;" a 1776 American patriot demonstrates how Locke's political ideas are reflected in the Declaration of Independence; and a 1789 Frenchman explains how Locke's concepts were expanded by Voltaire.
