3 Summers of Lincoln

In the final three summers of his life, Abraham Lincoln struggles with trying to end a brutal and endless civil war, when an unexpected meeting with his loudest and fiercest critic, abolitionist Frederick Douglass, changes history. 3 Summers of Lincoln is an epic musical tale which explores the unlikely and tumultuous friendship of these two historical giants, as Douglass helps transform Lincoln from a methodical legislator into a radical thinker who pushes America forward.
