Garry Moore , Mickey Rooney , James Dunn , Roberta Sherwood , Eddie Foy Jr. , Dick Button , June Havoc , Arney Freeman , Patricia Mariano , Bobby Mariano , Henry Lascoe , Gloria DeHaven , Robert Ellenstein

Mickey Rooney stars in this musical biography of George
M. Cohan which utilizes Cohan's songs to present a portrait of the actor/producer/manager/song writer/playwright/song-and-dance man from his early days in vaudeville to the last decade of his life when the once-great figure of the Broadway theater lost his touch as a creator of popular musicals but had great success as an actor. Some of the songs included in this production had never been heard before because Cohan had never gotten around to writing the music. 
SONGS include:"Yankee Doodle Boy," "Mary's a Grand Old Name," "Harrigan," "Give My Regards to Broadway," "You're a Grand Old Flag." 
This lost musical was produced & directed by famed Motion Picture Director (to become), Sidney Lumet.
