Join Abraham Lincoln (portrayed by Danny Russel) as he recounts an astonishing journey from log cabin to White House. During his formative boyhood years in Indiana (age 7-21), he loses his mother and sister, teaches himself to read and learns the value of hard work. During his time in Illinois, Abe has a prairie lawyer career, life with Mary and sons, political aspirations, and a debate with Stephen Douglas. In Washington, D.C., there is Civil War tragedy and triumph, freedom for slaves, and brilliant speeches. Come learn all about hilarity, heartbreak, and humanity from America's greatest leader!
