Abraham Lincoln’s Big Gay Dance Party

December 1, 2009

in Civil War Culture, Memory

[Hat-Tip to Religion in American History]

“In this comedy of political values Honest Abe’s home town puts a teacher on trial for asking ‘Was Lincoln Gay?’ Told in three acts – the audience decided the order – we see the events surrounding the ‘Trial of the Century’ through the eyes of the prosecution, the defense and the big city reporter.”

Check out an interview with playwright, Aaron Loeb.  Unfortunately, the play is no longer in production.
