| Oregon: "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers" -- yes, first a film, but later it toured as a stage musical Washington State: "The Golden Apple" "Finian's Rainbow" -- takes place In Missitucky - sort of a fantasy version combination apparently of Mississippi and Kentucky Colorado: "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" Minnesota: "I Remember Mama" "1776" also takes place in Massachusetts whenever Abigail Adams is on stage Georgia and probably South Carolina: Harold Rome's stage musical of "Gone with the Wind" Utah: some of "The Book of Mormon" Michigan: the Henry Ford sequences in "Ragtime" |

| Also, Connecticut: "Mame" when she visits the Upsons at the restricted area which includes Upson Downs; plus the theater where "Man in the Moon" takes place is the Shubert in New Haven, Connecticut. I think I take back "I Remember Mama" which probably is mostly in California -- they refer to relatives in Minnesota though. |

| I now see that the OP said that the show should take primarily in the state, and specifically cited Gypsy as a show that would not count for Washington. | |

| It mostly takes place in Russia, with scenes also in Paris and Chicago. For Alaska, there is the out-of-town closer Bonanza Bound, with book and lyrics by Comden and Green, and music by Saul Chaplin. It ran a week in Philly from December 26, 1947 through January 3, 1948. It left behind an unissued (and decidedly incomplete, just nine songs) RCA cast recording, recorded in Philly because of the impending new Petrillo ban. Later issued on a disc of Comden and Green stuff by some little label. |

| Part of BOUNCE is set in Alaska, or is it just the Canadian Yukon, as in FOXY? Laura |

| Oh, yeah, I guess Foxy doesn't count. FWIW, Bonanza Bound was set in Alaska, although before it was a state. In fact, it wasn't a state during the week Bonanza Bound played in Philly. :) And Bounce does go to Alaska, but reading the OP's post more carefully, I don't think he'd consider Bounce-Road Show-Wise Guys as counting. |

| Does Wonderful Town count for Ohio? It's integral to the story and 1 song although the show, of course, takes place in New York. | |
