Abe Lincoln in Illinois covers the critical years of Abraham Lincoln's early manhood up to the moment of his election as our 16th President. We see the backwoodsman, a failure at shopkeeping, but a great favorite with friends and neighbors. Slowly groping forward through the troubled years in Springfield, he at last begins to realize the great destiny before him.

This show presents an excellent opportunity for students to learn about Abraham Lincoln - student matinees have been set for October 13 & 20 at 9am and 12pm! Call Joshua Neth at 610.432.8943 for more information.
