We are especially proud to announce the participation of Ruby Jade Corado of Casa Ruby, as a narrator for our performance of Aaron Copland's "Lincoln Portrait." This classic work features the reading of excerpts of Abraham Lincoln's great documents, including the Gettysburg Address. D.C.'s Different Drummers is honored to support the important work of Casa Ruby in the DC LGBT community, & to feature Ruby Jade Corado as our guest narrator on March 25th.
