PATRIOTIC PLAY

America, A Star-Spangled Production

In 2003 we revised the patriotic play to reflect the changes which have taken place in our country. The setting of the play is now the classroom. The teachers are conducting a history lesson. As the day progresses, visions of patriots from the past began to appear on the stage and introduce themselves. On the second day, substitutes are in charge of the instruction, then on the third day the teachers return.

The play reflects the new patriotism which has swept our country and some new songs and jokes have been added.

You are welcome to use the play as it is written, or change it to suit your own school situation. Please go to the original version to find links to the song resources.

Click to see a 13 page print version of the updated play.

Costumes Parents made many of the costumes. If you scroll to the bottom of the page at Party 411, you will find many patriotic props including patriotic vests .

MC1: Speaking of blasts from the past, do you know why Paul Revere rode his horse from Boston to Lexington?

MC3: No, why?
