At the moment of President Lincoln’s death, Secretary of War Edwin Stanton announced, “Now he belongs to the ages.”. Join us for Kentucky’s commemoration of the Lincoln Bicentennial for the World Premiere of Sandra Fenichel Asher’s play based on one of the most significant and profound individuals in American history. “Witness a tribute to his life, as we tell the fascinating story of the son of poor, uneducated parents who transformed himself into an eloquent orator, a skillful leader, and, ultimately, President of the United States of America. What drove him? What inspired him? What fed and supported his remarkable journey? Though we can never fully know the answers to those questions, we “keep Mr. Lincoln” by continuing to explore them.”
