How does one present a show about John F. Kennedy, one of the most famous faces in the history of American politics?

Feature: 2022 HOLIDAY SHOWS In Columbus
by Paul Batterson - December 19, 2022
I will proudly admit it. I don't like Christmas shows. I once videotaped HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS and purposely stopped taping right about the time the Grinch was about to dump the presents off the edge of Mount Crumpet. I empathize with Miles Finch and Mr. Potter more than I do with Buddy the Elf and George Bailey.
