Abraham Lincoln Portrayed by Danny Russel
President Lincoln’s hilarity, heartbreak, humanity and brilliant speeches are depicted in a compelling portrayal from log cabin to White House.  As a young boy in Indiana he loses his mother and sister, teaches himself to read, embraces the power of books, and learns the
value of hard work.  Then he’s on to Illinois for prairie lawyer years, life with Mary and sons, political aspirations, debates with Stephen Douglas, Civil War tragedy and triumph, and freedom for slaves. Walk and talk with Honest Abe, ask questions and request photographs.
He’ll even pass out treats to the youngest Americans!
