Play: “Trip to Bountiful” @ Ford’s Theater

 

I went in DC to usher for “Trip to Bountiful” @ Ford’s Theater. It was about an old lady’s longing to go back to hometown and finally made the trip, while her son and daughter in law try to keep her from making the journey for financial and health concerns. I think I understand better why people want to return to hometown when they get really old (落葉歸根).

Ford’s Theatre was the site of Lincoln’s assassination, and it has museum exhibits. I knew about the Theater years back when taking a free walking tour on Lincoln’s assassination. You can google and try that great walking tour.
