Pam Brown will direct the Springfield Theatre Centre production of this 19th century comedy about a British family whose lives are turned awry by the arrival of a boorish American relative. The play perhaps is best known as the one President Lincoln was watching that fateful evening at Ford's Theater. Shows begin at 8 p.m., and Sunday matinees at 2 p.m in Theatre 3 at the Hoogland Center for the Arts. Tickets are $13 for adults and $12 for seniors and children.
