Picture, if you will, a Congress without compromise. Now, picture those politicians being more interested in lining their own pockets than serving the American people. Sound like a CNN headline?
With a plot that could have been pulled straight from today's news cycle, this razor sharp political satire is as relevant today as when it won the Pulitzer Prize in 1933. Can one idealistic young Congressman change the political Washington machine or will he fall into line? Full of colorful characters and sharp wit, this deadly accurate satire will ring in your thoughts long after you've left the theatre - the perfect companion for the current political season.
