It’s not every day that you can watch a quality theatrical production inside of a national landmark. But Ford’s Theatre is just that – a place of entertainment and history. After being closed for a century after President Lincoln’s assassination, Ford’s re-opened and continues to thrive as a theater and historical center. The stage offers new and classic plays and musicals year-round, and it’s easy to buy tickets either at the box office, by phone or online. Or come to Ford’s for the tour of the theater museum, the Peterson House and the Center for Education and Leadership. It’s best to check the schedule, because the programming changes periodically. On a permanent basis, the Center houses artifacts and a 34-foot tower of books on Lincoln and his legacy.
