What can you learn when you put yourself in someone else's shoes? What about when you act their part? Intiman Theatre has been sponsoring a series of community readings of its new play "Abe Lincoln in Illinois." They call it Front Porch Theater. Friends, neighbors and community members gather in coffee shops and libraries to read and discuss the play. How does it change a play to read it yourself? What does this play have to teach us about Abe Lincoln? And what can his story tell us about today? Have you been to any of the Front Porch readings? Join our discussion at 1.800.289.5869.
