Lincoln’s Political Evolution Fostered by Frederick Douglass in World Premiere Musical at the La Jolla Playhouse

In 3 Summers of Lincoln, The La Jolla Playhouse is exploring a side of Lincoln (Ivan Hernandez) not usually talked about: his initial hesitancy to end slavery because of the political opposition to the idea, and his progression from a rule-abiding lawyer to a passionate proponent of freedom, consequences be damned. Much of this change comes through his friendship with Frederick Douglass (Quentin Earl Darrington) though they only met in person a handful of times. [Sandi Masori]

Taking inspiration from a number of classic Seuss tales, like The Sneeches, The Lorax, Oh! The Places You’ll Go and the The Zax, this 2004 original by Peter Bloedel is campy, silly and fun.
