    I remeber watching 1776 in Edison at the plays in the Park back in 1976. I was in like 5th or 6th grade. At the end where Handcock says about the storm.... There was this huge clap of thunder and a huge windgust blpwing the Dec of Ind off the set. Huge pour down, people ran I sttod and watched it was over in min. Have loved this play since!! Good to see they still do it, Happy 4Th of July!

    This is sooo well done 💜. I would love to see "But, Mr.Adams" or "Piddle, Twiddle and resolve" with this cast. This is definitely my favourite version of "The Less of old Virginia" 😻

    Very well choreographed. Great voices and pageantry as well. Richard Henry Lee needed a tad more obnoxoty and confidence. But a great voice and great presence. Nicely done, everyone!

    @disco2698 Heyyy! Yes we did meet. Thanks for the compliments. I think my song was the funniest and most fun to perform. Also, the audience loves it. 1776 is one of the greatest musicals ever! Hope to see you at more shows! Patrick

    If you want to read the real story behind the movie, get a book called "Four Days in July" by Cornel Lengyel. It's a fascinating read.
