Business Description

Ford's Theatre in Washington, DC, stands as a testament to American history and artistry, renowned for its captivating theatrical productions and rich array of historical artifacts. This historic site, originally opened in 1861 by manager John T. Ford, became a prominent venue for performances until the tragic assassination of President Abraham Lincoln on April 14, 1865. Today, it operates as both a working theater and a national historic site, attracting countless visitors intrigued by Lincoln's legacy. The theater underwent a major reopening in 1968, restoring its status as a cultural institution in the heart of the nation’s capital. Visitors to Ford's Theatre can delve into a poignant journey through time, with the opportunity to engage with knowledgeable staff, explore detailed exhibits, and witness live performances that pay homage to the arts. Guided and self-guided tours provide insights into the significant historical events that unfolded within these walls, making it a must-see destination for history enthusiasts and casual visitors alike.
