By all accounts, Joe Wiegand bears an uncanny resemblance to President Theodore Roosevelt. Wiegand, an acclaimed impersonator, evokes the 26th president of the United States, in The Teddy Roosevelt Show, which he’ll perform in Ronan and Polson today and tomorrow.
In 2008, Wiegand and his family traveled across America in celebration of Roosevelt’s 150th birthday and the final centennial year of TR’s historic presidency (he served from 1901-1909). Performances at the White House and Roosevelt’s New York City birthplace highlighted the 50-state adventure.
Wiegand has since been featured as President Roosevelt in “The Men Who Built America” on the History Channel, served as the model for the newest TR sculpture at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, and has a feature role in “National Parks Adventure,” a film that’s still showing in IMAX theaters throughout the country.
