Allentown Symphony Hall - Onstage Serie: Ed Asner Starring as FDR


OnStage Series: Ed Asner starring as FDR
Ed Asner explores the life of one of America's best-loved presidents and the events and decisions that shaped a nation.  This powerful play shows the iconic president as he reflects on his years in office from inauguration to the trials of World war II.  "Sunrise at Campobello", Dory Schary's play depicting FDR's early battles with polio, made its Broadway debut on January 30, 1958 and was later adapted into a successful movie.
This one-man show takes us through FDR's White House years including the Great Depression and the years leading up to and including WWII. Ed Asner shows us why this president was known as "that man in the White House", scorned by many and admired by most.
 Meet and greet: $75 available through the ticket office only.
Please Note: All tickets are subject to a service fee.
