Gore Vidal's The Best Man features two front runners for a political party nomination that will almost certainly make one the next President of the United States. Each candidate is in possession of some serious mud to sling and each has to decide just how dirty to play the game. Written with the deep insight of a true political insider (Vidal ran for Congress in 1960, the same year he penned the play) and the wit of a grand man of letters, The Best Man remains, as The New Yorker wrote in 2000, ”A sophisticated, elegant and damnably entertaining play!”

Just in time for the Fall election, Aurora Theatre Company Artistic Director Tom Ross helms this political play, about which The NY Times said β€œIt makes you wish that Vidal were writing the dialogue for the presidential debates.”
