| What about the "Independence Day Hora" from Milk and Honey? Oops, wrong country! Speaking of Cohan, there's Little Johnny Jones. Linking an NYPL page on the show, with links at the bottom to the script. When is Encores! going to do a Cohan? Probably would need all new orchestrations so might be a bit expensive. Still . . . And plays set completely or partly on the 4th include The 5th of July (first act takes place on the 4th, second act on the 5th), and John Guare's one act In Fireworks Lie Secret Codes. And does any of The Miss Firecracker Contest actually take place on the 4th? Not sure. And, obviously, Ah, Wilderness! And going back to musicals, you don't get much more focued on America than 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. |

| not sure if it qualifies as a "July 4th" musical but the "Favorite Son" number in THE WILL ROGERS FOLLIES was done with a lot of Red,White & Blue splendor up in Boston, we were treated to a top-notch first national tour with Mac Davis as Mr. Rogers |

| The scene musicalized as "The House We Live In" in Grey Gardens took place on Independence Day. | |
