An Evening with Lincoln and Bush

Two local actors/authors present their not-to-be-missed one-person performances of Abraham Lincoln and Barbara Bush. ​

"A Town Hall with Abraham Lincoln"

A former member of the diplomatic corps, Beaverton resident Steve Holgate is Abraham Lincoln and has performed his one-man show over 250 times across the nation. As Lincoln, Holgate will bring to life the 16th president’s hopes, fears, and actions as he leads the country during the Civil War and will answer questions during a mock press conference as part of the performance. Come prepared with questions for President Lincoln!

“Behind Every Bush”
Tigard resident and award-winning actress Virginia Kincaid stars as Barbara Bush in her original one-woman play "Behind Every Bush", in which Barbara visits with her biographer (the audience) in preparation for writing her memoir. For this delightful look at Barbara Bush, former Houstonian Kincaid draws from her family connection to the lady behind the presidents, bringing a unique
insight to Barbara's childhood, marriage, children, political adventures, and literacy advocacy, in addition to anything else she’d like to talk about.
