What parts of Sir Winston Churchill's life do we get to see on stage?

Well, the audience will be hearing a sort of potted history of his life, starting with his school days.

They will hear about the people and events that shaped his life, how he coped with parents who were always in the public eye, so very obs- uh, often absent from home.

His early experiences of war and how those experiences shaped him into the man willing to stand up to Hitler when many of his colleagues were afraid to do so.

They will hear his affection for America and the American people, his encounters with various US presidents, not least Franklin D. Roosevelt, with whom he became very close as they both navigated their countries through the Second World War.

They will discover a man of unique sense of humor that led to hilarious encounters with Orson Welles and Charlie Chaplin, the regard that Queen and country had for him with the special honors on his 80th birthday and at a White House ceremony, the honor that President Kennedy bestowed on him, an honor never be- before bestowed on a citizen of another country.

And as the creator of this show, and obviously the performer on stage for nearly two hours telling Sir Winston Churchill's experiences and stories, what do you hope Milwaukee audiences take away, not just about Sir Winston Churchill, but even more about his humanity, that, that person that you see behind the photographs and the speeches?

Yeah.
