Caught between conflicting advice from her husband Bill and campaign manager Mark, Hillary’s troubled bid for America’s highest office is reimagined as a familiar story turned on its head.

The creative team also includes set designer Chloe Lamford (London: Circle Mirror Transformation, Amadeus, Berlin: Ophelia, 1984) and costume designer Rita Ryack (Casa Valentina, My One and Only).
With infinite possibilities written into a smart and funny script, audiences can expect to be surprised and challenged in the alternate universe of Hillary and Clinton, now playing at the Golden Theatre.
