As our country celebrates its 250^th birthday, there is only one entity that can perform that history live - Presidents and Their First Ladies, dramatically speaking. Two veteran actors, each with 49 years of experience, husband and wife William and Sue Wills, have researched, written and performed creations on 36 of America’s First Couples. They have given over 5,800 performances of these stories in 36 states, cruise ships and Presidential Libraries.

On Thursday, July 9, at 4 p.m., they will bring the life stories of our first President and First Lady, George and Martha Washington, at the Okeechobee County Library.

Performing in costume and assuming the personalities of the Washingtons, the Wills concentrate their story not only on the historical happenings, but the couple’s personal triumphs and tragedies. The audience will come to understand the great sacrifices made to bring about the birth of our nation.  It’s a wonderful way to rekindle in all of us the spark of patriotism that ignited the flame of freedom.
