An Evening with Abraham Lincoln

Have you ever wished that you could have met Abraham Lincoln?  It’s not too late.  In commemoration of the 160th anniversary of the Gettysburg Address, for one night only, our 16th president returns courtesy of writer, actor, and storyteller Jacob Truax.  Be transported to the world of Abraham Lincoln—politician, lawyer, husband, and father—as Mr. Truax masterfully weaves Lincoln’s speeches, letters, anecdotes, jokes, and other Lincolniana into an unforgettable evening.

Following the performance, please join us for a reception featuring specialty cocktails created by Jacob inspired by Lincoln and his home state of Kentucky. (Your ticket price includes one beverage.) In addition Judge James Cotton, who wrote the book The Greatest Speech, Ever: The Remarkable Story of Abraham Lincoln and his Gettysburg Address which has inspired and been a resource for Jacob’s creation of this presentation, will attend the performance and the reception where he will answer questions and sign his book. Cotton is a recently retired Scott County TN General Sessions judge.
