Gore Vidal's the Best Man September 7, 2012

A play about power, ambition, political secrets, ruthlessness and the race for the presidency, Gore Vidal's 'The Best Man' is set at the national convention where two candidates are vying for their party's nomination during the primary season. It's an inside look at the dirt-digging, double-dealing, triple-crossing chicanery of presidential electioneering and what could be more fun in a presidential campaign season than these theatrical fireworks? This marks the first major revival of Gore Vidal's 'The Best Man' since it received a Tony Award nomination and won the Drama Desk Award and Outer Critics Circle in 2000.
