Synopsis of the Show:
NOTE: This production contains strong adult themes and language.

One four-letter C-word, a drug-dealing family member, and a mistress are all about to rock 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. When an unhinged President unwittingly spins a PR nightmare into a global crisis, the brilliant and beleaguered women he relies upon most risk life, liberty, and the pursuit of sanity to keep the Commander-in-Chief out of trouble. Selina Fillinger’s brilliant all-female two-act farce took Broadway by storm in a star-studded production that earned three 2022 Tony nominations.

Cast of Characters: (7 females)

In order of their emotional proximity to the President (Closest to Furthest):

HARRIET – His fired up and stressed-out Chief of Staff.
JEAN – His tightly wound Press Secretary.
STEPHANIE – His nervous Personal Secretary.
DUSTY – His much younger and pregnant Mistress.
BERNADETTE – His butch-lesbian, drug-dealing Sister.
CHRIS – A Journalist on the brink of losing her job.
MARGARET – His wife, the First Lady, with challenges of her own.
