Presidents and Their First Ladies,
Dramatically Speaking: Theodore and Edith Roosevelt
 |
With numerous wars and fantastic
technological advancements, the world was changing at a rapid pace.
The United States needed a strong leader, and with Theodore
Roosevelt at the helm, the nation rose to prominence in the first
decade of the 20th Century. Affectionately known as "Thee" by his
second wife and childhood acquaintance, Edith helped her husband
through a tumultuous two terms in the White House.
The years Theodore and Edith spent as
President and First Lady come to life in an exciting dramatic
performance featuring the veteran acting and writing team of husband
and wife, William and Sue Wills. For the past two years, the Wills
have delighted standing room only crowds at various Library System
locations with their powerful portrayals of Abraham and Mary Lincoln
and John and Abigail Adams.
