Eisenhower: This Piece of Ground

by Tulis McCall

One person shows that are biographical are always a bid dodgy. For one thing, the author has to come up with a reason for the character onstage to be talking at all - because the character is alone.  It is much easier to drop the fourth wall and talk to the audience directly.  After all - everyone knows that everyone else is there. "Eisenhower: This Piece of Ground" is a perfect example.
