Details

John Wilkes Booth—Maryland-born heartthrob, magnetic stage actor, Shakespearean star- once adored for his beauty, bravado, and tragic flair. He lit up rooms. He knew it. And then he lit a match to the country. Because Booth wasn’t just a tragic actor. He was a drunk. A deluded white supremacist. A Southern fanatic. And the man who put a bullet in the back of Abraham Lincoln’s head.
This darkly funny, unflinchingly honest portrait lets you laugh at him, with him—and then, uncomfortably, at yourself. Because the truth is, Booth isn’t just a relic. He’s a warning. One we still haven’t heeded. In this play, the past is prologue.
