The Ford’s Theatre Society hosted its annual gala May 31. The gala performances at Ford’s Theatre included a toe-tapping “Little Jazz Bird,” performed by Tommy Tune, a winning version of Michael Jackson’s “Smooth Criminal” by 2CELLOS, Van Morrison’s “Wild Night” by Martina McBride, Joss Stone and the full ensemble performing “Glory” from the film, “Selma,” and Boyz II Men singing “End of the Road.” During the performance, theater director Paul Tetreault recounted Ford’s 150 events that commemorated 150 years since the assassination of Abraham Lincoln at the historic theater on 10th Street NW.
