The play takes aim at an American populace that has grown strikingly complacent in the wake of extraordinary global challenges, exposing one of the world’s most intriguing and influential conflicts: the battle between the elected leader of the free world and a democracy of millions. The cast will also include Kim Carson as Anna Lisa and Peter Schmitz as Peit.
