Jan. 23-Feb. 22, 2015 From the Playwright: “Mary Lincoln is both magnetic and appalling, both tragic and triumphant. … I’m passionate about trying to understand her within the structures of the time she lived, and I’ve found the facts about her to be liberating as a writer. She is someone who always is capable of surprise. Writing about her has only made me want to know her more.” -James Still, Playwright of The Widow Lincoln Photo of Mary Bacon by Scott Suchman. 3
