Do someone know which play Lincoln attended on March 15, 1865 in Grover's Theatre ? I think he was accompanied by Mary and Clara Harris. Thanks.

"The Magic Flute"
He went with Mrs. Lincoln, Clara Harris, and Gen. James G. Wilson

I loved that he attended a Mozart opera. The Magic Flute is a personal favorite of mine.
