when did they sign the declaration of independence?
july 4, 1776
the central departure from history is that the separation from great britain was accomplished in two steps: the actual vote for independence came on july 2 with the approval of lee's resolution of independence. the wording of the declaration of independence—the statement to the world as to the reasons necessitating the split—was then debated for three days before being approved on july 4. the vote for independence did not hinge on some passages being removed from the declaration, as implied in the play, since congress had already voted in favor of independence before debating the declaration. for the sake of drama, the play's authors combined the two events. in addition, some historians believe that the declaration was not signed on july 4, as shown in "1776", but was instead signed on august 2, 1776. the authors of "1776" had the delegates sign the declaration on july 4 for dramatic reasons.
