Presidents & Their First Ladies

Presidents & Their First Ladies, Dramatically Speaking: John Quincy and Louisa Adams

“Presidents and Their First Ladies, Dramatically Speaking” is the creation of the veteran acting and writing team of husband and wife, William and Sue Wills. After 20 years of operating their own theatrical company in the resort of Ocean City, MD, the couple is now in their 28th year of bringing to life the stories of 36 different Presidential couples. Amazingly, the Wills have appeared together on stage over 9,400 times and counting. They are not “impersonators,” but hope that their costumes, dialects and demeanors will help recreate these historical characters.

Through their “Presidents and First Ladies” program, William and Sue aim to present the personal stories of our nation’s first couples. By doing so, they hope to bring these historical figures to life as more than just names in history books.

Coming in January!
