Feb 27th, 09
In spite of the worst natural disaster in Kentucky's history, our show did go on.

Our Lincoln had cast of more than 350 people.

If you were there on February 2, you saw a cast of more than 350 performers, nearly all of them Kentuckians, who delivered a musical, theatrical and historical tribute to the nation's 16th president, Kentucky-born Abraham Lincoln.  Billed as "Kentucky's Gift to the Nation," this grand presentation of the Kentucky Humanities Council received standing ovations at the end of both acts at the John F.
