Hear ‘The Greatest Speech Of All Time’
Tim Mooney delivers one-man show at the Coaster Theatre
CANNON BEACH —
Tim
Mooney, performer of the hit
one-man shows “Moliere than
Thou,” “Lot o’ Shakespeare”
and “Shakespeare’s Histories”
will bring “The Greatest Speech
Of All Time” to the Coaster The-
atre. The performance is set for 7
p.m. Tuesday, March 22.
Tickets are $15 each and are
available online or by calling
503-436-1242.
Mooney entered the words
“greatest speech of all time” into
Google, and his new play is the
result. “The Greatest Speech of
All Time” leads the audience
through the words that shaped
history and features 10 speeches.
Mooney’s proclivity for inter-
preting the shades of irony and
hyperbole that inform the orato-
ry, and his ability to untangle the
“spaghetti” of centuries-old syn-
tax, recreates these events.
“I love being able to bring
moments of historical conse-
quence, where great deeds hang
in the balance, to immediate and
tangible life,” Mooney says.
“The Greatest Speech Of All
Time” rocked the Kansas City
Fringe Festival, and KCMetrop-
olis.com called it, “A delightful
blend of humor and history, with
charisma, energetic pacing, and
interesting anecdotes, keeping
the audience riveted.”
In the play, watch Socra-
tes, having been condemned to
death, give his famous “Apol-
ogy.” Then, Mark Antony de-
livers “Friends, Romans, Coun-
trymen,” addressing the mob at
Caesar’s funeral, while deftly

turning their anger against the
“honorable men” who conspired

Frederick Douglass presents
a searing indictment of slavery,
mounting a “¿ery stream” of re-
buke for the “revolting barbarity
and shameless hypocrisy” that
characterized the American slave
trade. Abraham Lincoln reinvig-
orates the Union, galvanizing
their resolve with the “Gettys-
burg Address.”
Teddy Roosevelt, running for
President, delivers a lengthy ad-
dress, in spite of having just been
shot. Roosevelt insists “the issues
at stake in this campaign” are
more important than his own life.
