Abraham Lincoln's Big Gay Dance Party

SF Playhouse

San Francisco, California 94102 Get Directions
What if President Lincoln was gay? Would you have to rethink everything?

As we re-imagine our national identity in the 21st century, Aaron Loeb's World Premiere deconstructs our greatest icon in this hilarious farce directed by Chris Smith, former Artistic Director of the Magic Theatre.
Told in three acts--the audience decides the order-with a nod to Inherit the Wind, a "Trial of the Century" determines the fate of a rural third grade teacher who outs Abe as gay in the annual Christmas Pageant.
Abe and the rest of the cast dance in styles from Ballroom to Salsa, and yet, the title belies the seriousness of the play's ambition to address our deep national divide as we fight over what it really means to be an American.
