Preview story from AnnArbor.com
Continuing his tradition of challenging, thought provoking work, MacArthur “Genius” grant recipient Bill T. Jones is creating a new evening-length work about Abraham Lincoln. "Fondly Do We Hope... Fervently Do We Pray" finds Jones seeking a way to articulate, if not reconcile, the view of Lincoln he had as a young boy growing up during the civil rights struggle and as a mid-life liberal artist who "has very few heroes." By envisioning the America that might have been had Lincoln completed the Reconstruction, Jones exposes the great distance between what is and what could have been.
