President U.S. Grant
President U.S. Grant meets with the 1st Nebraska Regiment Social Event
September 30, 2023
General George Crook House
Ft. Omaha, Omaha, Nebraska
Step back to the Gilded Age and listen to tales and personal history from one of America's under appreciated Presidents.
This Chautauqua-style portrayal takes Ulysses S. Grant from personal mediocrity to his promotion to the highest-ranking general in the Union Army and finally a two term President . Complete with period costume, the presentation allows audiences to relive the life of President U.S. Grant.
Chautauqua is a living history program in which performers, in costume and in character, bring historical figures to life in theatrical monologues.
