Abraham Lincoln's Big Gay Dance Party Tickets

In Abraham Lincoln’s Big, Gay Dance Party, a fourth-grade Christmas pageant in Lincoln’s rural Illinois hometown sets off a firestorm of controversy when it calls into question Honest Abe’s sexuality. A thought-provoking, laugh-out-loud funny, and uniquely American story unfolds, offering surprises at every turn. Each of the three acts lets the audience see the story from a different character’s viewpoint–and at each performance the audience decides in which order the acts are performed, creating a Rubik’s Cube-like theatrical event. A truly democratic theatergoing experience! What could be more American than that?

Story

What Is the Story of Abraham Lincoln’s Big Gay Dance Party?
In Abraham Lincoln’s Big Gay Dance Party chaos is sparked in a rural Illinois town when a grade school Christmas pageant reveals evidence that President Abraham Lincoln was gay. Soon, the teacher in charge of the pageant is on trial and two rival gubernatorial candidates are going head to head to decide her verdict, all under the close scrutiny of local residents, friends and family members. This trial of presidential proportions attracts the attention of The New York Times, which sends two of its more outlandish journalists to the “fly-over states” for an expose of the big, gay debate. What would Honest Abe think of the hullabaloo?
