“One Man’s Lincoln”
Friday and Saturday
February 15 and 16, 2008 in Greensburg, Kentucky
Greensburg will join the 200th Anniversary Celebration of Abraham Lincoln’s birth with the Kentucky Repertory Theatre’s production of “One Man’s Lincoln”. This one-man touring production by Wade Hall about Abraham Lincoln is from the viewpoint of his law partner, William Herndon, Springfield, Illinois.
Billy Herndon, portrayed by Larry Snead, presents a spellbinding monologue of the“evidence” on Lincoln as if he were in court, speaking from the law offices the two men shared before Lincoln was elected president. Outspoken and controversial, he attempts to decipher Lincoln’s greatness and complexity, while offering a compelling look at his humanity.
The play will be held in the Greensburg Presbyterian Church, which is part of the Historic District and Renaissance on Main Program.
Two performances—three ticket packages -
Ticket A—$25.00 per person— tour, reception and play
Ticket B—$10.00 per person—play only
Ticket C—$5.00 per student—play only
Ticket A—meet at the Old Courthouse to begin 5:00 p.m. tour
Tickets B and C—meet at the Greensburg Presbyterian Church for the 6:30 p.m. performance.
