Living history

Apparitions of three dead presidents will visit Temple Isaiah in Newport Beach tonight.

Three presidential impressionists playing the parts of Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt and James Garfield will show up during the Friday night Sabbath services there, which start at 8 p.m., to address the temple’s congregants and interact with the crowd.

This living history event will be free and open to the public said Peter Small, president of Temple Isaiah’s congregation. He also plays the role of Teddy Roosevelt.

Bruce Buonauro portrays Garfield, and William Peck is Abe Lincoln.

The temple is at 2401 Irvine Ave.

For more information, call Temple Isaiah at (949) 548-6900.
