I will admit that when I found out that I would be previewing Steven Spielberg’s Lincoln starring Academy Award Winner Daniel Day Lewis during my Disney Press trip, I was less than enthusiastic. I do remember enough of the basics from social studies class: stovetop hat, tall, beard, the Gettysburg Address, the Emancipation Proclamation, assassination, Mary Todd Lincoln, you get […]

The show featured phenomenal acts with performers […]
