1776 and All That (manuscript)
1776 and All That (manuscript)
Comedy. By Leonard Wibberley.

Cast: 9m., 8w., bits. A July 4th costume party celebration of our independence at the White House is unexpectedly joined (from Heaven) by George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin and George III. They have old debates to settle with each other, such as Democracy vs. "The Diving Right of Kings," and they are soon involved in some dazzling new debates with those presently running the government which has survived from the time these Heavenly figures lived on Earth. The scene shifts from Heaven to that other place—Washington, D.C. It also changes at times from Heavenly debate to very human problems—the future of two young lovers, and while we're about it—the future of our country.
