LINCOLN GOES TO HOLLYWOOD

An Hysterical Historical Comedy by David Ledingham

January 7 & 9, 2027 • 8:00 PM • TACAW

 

Abraham Lincoln is back... and he has a few things to say.

 

After two years of development, Lincoln Goes to Hollywood arrives at TACAW in its fully realized form—sharper, funnier and more timely than ever. 

 

Starring David Ledingham and Lyon Hamill, this new comedy brings Lincoln, the Booth brothers and Shakespeare together for a funny and thought-provoking journey from the Roman Republic to Hollywood.

 

History, politics, show business and the American experiment collide in one wildly entertaining night at the theatre called: 

​

“funny and inventive . . . refreshing genius”

​

This new Hit Comedy was commissioned for AFF’s JuneFest 2025, and

following RAVE REVIEWS, transferred to Thunder River Theatre Company

for an acclaimed encore. Now, after two years of development, Lincoln Goes to Hollywood arrives at TACAW as a fully realized full-length production.

It’s a chance to discover the play for the first time

—or see just how far it has come.

​

Come see Lincoln Goes to Hollywood—before it's HISTORY!
