Keegan Theatre Moves Opening Night of THE BEST MAN to Jan 30

Recent and ongoing weather conditions have necessitated rehearsal cancellations and are causing Keegan leadership concern for the safety and comfort of our Church Street building for both artists and audiences. To ensure that we can provide a facility that is warm enough to safely host our production, we will be moving opening night of The Best Man to Thursday, January 30th at 8:00 pm.

The Keegan Theatre presents Gore Vidal's political corker The Best Man, opening January 30th at the Andrew Keegan Theatre in Washington, DC. A play about power, ambition, political secrets, ruthlessness and the race for the presidency, 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. Filled with Vidal's trademark verbal fire, this darkly satirical drama resonates today as an exploration of how political and personal agendas can change the destiny of a nation.

The Best Man runs through February 22, 2014. The press opening is now February 1 at 8:00pm. The Keegan Theatre is in its 17th season in Washington, DC.
