Fiftten Men in a Smoke-Filled Room at Theatre 40

Chicago, June, 1920. The Republican National Convention is in full swing. Warren G.Harding is overwhelmed by the prospect of being the nominee of the Republican Party forPresident. Hounded by an ambitious campaign manager, a paralyzingly superstitious wife, astar-struck young mistress, and the frightening pull of inevitability, Harding seems destinedto be President----or is he? This play explores the extent to which fate controls our lives. Isthere a higher power that determines our destinies or are we the aggregate result of theidiosyncracies of flawed humanity?Written by Colin Speer Crowley. Directed by Jules Aaron.
