Why I recommend this place to locals

I recommend to all adults and kids to see a play at this theater! It is truely amazing and very magestic.

I’ve seen at least 6-8 plays, but my favorites were “Raisin in the Sun”, the perennial favorite – “A Christmas Carol”, and the local favorite – “A Tuna Christmas”.

A tip I have about this place

Visit the small home across * the street where Lincoln spent the last hours of his life suffering from his mortal wound.
Great introspection on how people lived & died during this period of time.
*next door
to theatre is Hard Rock Cafe.

Why I recommend this place to visitors

As well as visiting the theater, I strongly recommend going to the small room that Lincoln died in. It definitely gives a feel for the times, the stained pillowcase and all!
