Visit the boyhood home of John Wilkes Booth for a presentation about the people who were front and center at Ford’s Theatre on assassination night — the comic who considered John Wilkes Booth his best friend, the young doctor who struggled to save the president, the senator’s daughter who vowed to marry Booth even at the foot of the scaffold. The talk will be illustrated with archival photos from Lincoln’s Final Hours and from private collections. Admission to the talk and a 1 p.m. tour of Tudor Hall is $5 cash for those 13 and older. The fee supports theĀ JuniusĀ B. Booth Society, a volunteer group that aids in the restoration and preservation of Tudor Hall, the home of Junius Booth and Edwin Booth, two of America’s most renowned 19th Century Shakespearean actors. The historic Gothic Revival cottage was built by carpenters from historic Ford’s Theatre in Washington, D.C.
