Entertaining, educational, humorous, and poignant
Award-winning Lincoln presenter Jacob Truax brings his acclaimed one-man show to London. Greenwich Theatre will host the UK première of An Audience with Abraham Lincoln, a compelling one-man performance by Jacob Truax.
A powerful blend of history, theatre, and storytelling comes to the stage with An Audience with Abraham Lincoln, a seventy-five-minute solo performance that illuminates one of America’s most iconic leaders through humor, humanity, and unforgettable oratory.
With anecdotes both heart-warming and heart-rending, Abraham Lincoln recounts the extraordinary arc of his life — from his difficult frontier childhood to the marriage, family, and legal and legislative successes that eventually elevated him to the presidency. Woven throughout are some of Lincoln’s most enduring speeches, including Lincoln’s Lecture on Law, the House Divided speech, the Second Inaugural Address, and the show’s powerful finale, The Gettysburg Address.
Part performance, part historical reflection, An Audience with Abraham Lincoln is entertaining, educational, humorous, and poignant — leaving audiences with a deeper appreciation for the wit, compassion, and statesmanship of the sixteenth president of the United States.
Jacob Truax is an award-winning Lincoln interpreter recognized for his rigorous historical research and engaging performance style. A lifetime member of the Association of Lincoln Presenters, he has performed across the United States. An Audience with Abraham Lincoln marks his first professional engagement in the United Kingdom.
