A wonderful dinner buffet provided by Catering with Elegance is included in the ticket price and an available cash bar will kick off the evening in style. Enjoy the beauty of the Scottish Rite Cathedral’s Grand Hall as you traverse towards the state-of-the-art, yet intimate theater, and settle in to enjoy this wonderful live stage performance. Give 'Em Hell, Harry!, by Samuel Gallu, is a faithful and often humorous portrayal of President Harry S. Truman's life and presidency. It spans his childhood, his "political apprenticeship" as a judge in Jackson County, MO, his years in the U.S. Senate and his momentous two terms as President. Actor James Whitmore originated the role in 1975. Clifton Truman Daniel took up the mantle in October of 2017, marking the first time in history a U.S. president would be portrayed onstage by a direct descendant.. in this case, his oldest grandson!
