Ford's Theatre

Ford's Theatre was a Washington, D.C. theatre, active during the 19th century. It was owned and operated by John T. Ford and his brother Henry Clay Ford.

It was the site of the assassination of U. S. President Abraham Lincoln on 14 April 1865 by John Wilkes Booth. The Sixth Doctor, Evelyn Smythe and Robert Knox were all present in Ford's Theatre that night. (BFA: Assassin in the Limelight)

The Eighth Doctor told his companion Charley Pollard that he once attempted to convince Lincoln not to go to the theatre. (BFA: Minuet in Hell)
