In between, there will be a Dragon Boat race on the river with actors portraying patriots in the boats. Color guard ceremonies, dramatic reading of the Declaration of Independence along with singers from Playhouse and Music Mountain will be singing "God Bless America" from both sides of river utilizing stadium quality speakers.

Rodgers & Hammerstein's South Pacific, Bucks County Playhouse
Sunday July 5, 2026
June 18 - July 26 Rodgers and Hammerstein’s sweeping wartime romance — with deep Bucks County roots — returns for the nation’s 250th celebration. Set against the lush backdrop of an island paradise during World War II, South Pacific is a tale of love, duty, and cultural divides. When U.S. Navy nurse Nellie Forbush falls for a mysterious French planter, and young lieutenant Cable faces his own forbidden romance, both must confront the prejudices that threaten their happiness. Featuring unforgettable songs including “Some Enchanted Evening,” “Younger Than Springtime,” and “There Is Nothin’ Like a Dame,” this Pulitzer Prize–winning musical remains one of Broadway’s most enduring classics—passionate, poignant, and as timely as ever.
