A fascinating one-person play for your community theater, CVB, library, annual conference, or corporate program. Dressed authentically and using Mary Lincoln’s "own words," M. Kay duPont, author of the award-winning Loving Mr. Lincoln: The Personal Diaries of Mary Todd Lincoln, will enthrall you with details and stories from the Lincoln family. She will take you back to the 1800s, inside her life with Abraham, and all the way from Springfield, Illinois, to the White House. A Visit with Mary Todd Lincoln reveals the life of the most misunderstood First Lady in American history and the husband who would never have become President without her. Based on meticulous research, so that every historical fact is accurate, Kay duPont beautifully unveils one of the strongest, yet most tragic, relationships in history.

You’ll learn firsthand about Mary Lincoln’s pain and frustration when Abraham left her at the altar, when her young sons died, and when Abraham’s political career seemed to be at an end. You’ll discover how and why Mary pushed her quiet husband toward the Presidency, and share her joy when she finally achieves her life-long ambition of living in the White House. When you leave this program, you’ll feel like you’ve been allowed inside the home of one of the world’s most famous couples to share their life and love. You’ll also be reminded of the values that never change, no matter what century you’re in—determination, dreams and love.
