STARRING TONY LAWTON Summer 1962. Two years after leaving office, Dwight D. Eisenhower opens The New York Times to find himself called “Mediocre” in the first historians’ ranking of American presidents. Stung and intrigued, Ike takes us on a candid, often hilarious journey through his life: his Kansas boyhood, his WWII command, and the defining decisions of his presidency. A funny, revealing, and electrifying solo performance, Eisenhower: This Piece of Ground challenges what true greatness means — and reminds us why courage, humor, and integrity stand at the heart of democracy.
