ISC Presents Reading of OUR AMERICAN COUSIN by Tom Taylor, 2/28

By:

Join us as the 2010 Salon Series gets underway!

On Sunday, February 28 we begin our offering of rarely produced plays with an evening honoring our 16th President.

On the night President Lincoln was assassinated, he was enjoying one of his favorite pastimes: a night at the theater. Lurking in The Shadows was John Wilkes Boothe. He waited for the audience's biggest laugh, pulled the trigger, and changed history. On February 28, ISC presents a reading of the play Lincoln was watching the night he died, alongside letters Lincoln wrote to a young actor. In them, he discusses his admiration for the works of Shakespeare and his thoughts on the importance of theater.
