Christopher Long8월 7, 2014Very good audio tour, well done & informative museum, good presentation by the ranger in the Theatre itself. Worth a visit to learn more about Lincoln, see where he was shot and the room in he died.
Edward Delfino8월 28, 2018A part of American history. Info & artifacts related to the assassination of Abe Lincoln. This is a place all Americans visiting DC ought to take the time to visit. You might even learn something.
Aaron Smith5월 13, 2015Museum isn't great. You can see what Abe was wearing when he was shot and also the head his pillow was on. The Peterson house is worth it as is the small show you see in the theatre. Can't see the box
Luke Cardy12월 27, 2015We had a really cool afternoon here, they have a lot of information and displays on the Lincoln assassination and even the actual gun used by John Wilkes Booth.
The Traveler7월 25, 2019Theater is restored and the seats were comfortable for the presentation on President Lincoln’s assassination. The line out front moves really quickly. I would recommend a visit if in the area.
John Hankus7월 16, 2015Get there early for the free tickets because they sell out for the day on a first come first serve basis really quick.
Claire Ellen7월 19, 2015And often overlooked stop in DC I highly recommend it do the tour of the museum and the presentation very informative
- Before/theatre, dine at Bistro d'Oc across the street. Charming, family own & operated;excellent food, ambience, lovely wines. Soak up the history IN Theatre. Enjoy excellent productions.
Cheng Yang10월 17, 2014If you are coming for an evening performance, other than the French bistro opposite the theatre, try Hard Rock( happy hour 4-7pm) or Harrys( on E st & 11th) for a quick drink & small bites before show
Matt Wiedenhoeft6월 23, 2013Audio tour is not worth the extra money. The tour is worth the time & the theater is amazing. You can see directly into the box where Lincoln was shot.
Michelle Fauntleroy12월 29, 2011saw A Christmas Carol and was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the show! excellent acting, great costumes, a little music and dancing, scary ghosts and the show moved right along!- Danielle S.3월 26, 2013If you come for the programming outside of the tours and museum, forget One Destiny. Go for the educational talk with park ranger Caleb instead. What a fox!
Denis Hurley6월 29, 2014The employees will tell you seats in the theater are "first come, first serve," but there are plenty of seats. Stay in the museum as long as you want- there's no need to rush for a seat and wait.
Paul Lester1월 9, 2010The museum is free but you need to get a ticket at the box office, which is located inside. The video presentations are great. Make sure to watch all of them! 자세히 보기
Keith Hunter10월 24, 2013Don't fight the line to go downstairs. Go up stairs and opposite of the presidential box for the best seats ever.
Travel Channel11월 23, 2010Ford's Theatre has preserved the 1865 scene where President Lincoln was assassinated. Plays are produced on the same stage onto which John Wilkes Booth jumped after the fatal shot.
heidi long4월 8, 2017Small theater, but nice seats and Wonderful play. "Ragtime ". Beautiful singing and musuc
HISTORY4월 1, 2010On the second floor of the Theater, you can see the boxseat where Abe Lincoln was sitting when he was killed. On the lower level the museum displays exhibits about Lincoln’s life and his tragic death.
Mark Abraham12월 28, 2012You can rent the Acoustaguide for $5, or use your smartphone and download the Ford's Theater app. fords.org.
Genie Gohman10월 20, 2012We walked right in got our tickets and started the tour. This was October which is off season, but there were a lot of tour buses.
National Geographic Traveller (UK)10월 6, 2014The place where President Abraham Lincoln was shot dead has been restored to how it was on that fateful night. Tours start with an exhibition that tells the story of his presidency. 자세히 보기
Scoutmob11월 28, 2011Across from the no-gum-allowed Ford's Theater, there's a gum tree you stick your gum on and take a picture with. If you're into that kind of nostalgic gum-chewing.
Andy Thompson10월 31, 2010For being such an old place, Ford Theatre sure is technologically hip! So hip it's Google Maps favorite places and has a Fourswuare special!
Candice Barber4월 17, 2011Audio tour is worth the 5 bucks. Make sure to check the daily schedule to know when you can enter.
DC Preservation League7월 22, 2011Built by Baltimore theater entrepeneur John T. Ford in 1833 and reconstructed by architect James J. Gifford in 1863. The theatre was restored in 1967 to 1865 appearance- John1월 2, 2013Only the most dedicated and committed fans of American history come here to learn about the man who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our Nation.
- Lexy Haynes8월 26, 2010Especially nice at Christmas time to see A Christmas Carol. :-) Definitely go downstairs to museum, it's amazing.
Julia Pile7월 27, 2013Need a free timed ticket. Theatre is gorgeous. Rangers do a great job of telling the history.
Dirty Bird8월 9, 2014So small and hard seats if you're going for a show but historically significant.
JESS311월 16, 2011Head to the back of the building (use the alley off of F) to see where Booth had his horse waiting when he shot Lincoln.
Laura Harvey Stout2월 20, 2011Be sure to give yourself plenty of time to explore and get the audio tour for $5
Carie Jones7월 10, 2011I recommend skipping this stop. Crazy anti-climactic for the wait. The museum exhibit wasn't bad.
Karin Kreutzer6월 12, 2011After the assassination the entire building was ultimately gutted due to multiple burnings. The only original element is the brick mortar.- Loretta Stultz7월 5, 2010This is a great theatre. It has history and it has been done over in the last couple of years.
Shannon M.4월 24, 2013In march the park service closes off the Lincoln booth because the large school groups create a fire hazard :(
M Squared Real Estate8월 19, 2011This is where John Wilkes Booth shot President Abraham Lincoln in 1865, and he was taken across the street to the Petersen House where he died.
