One Fell Swoop

One Fell Swoop tells the story of a law professor’s ethical and romantic journey into the hardball world of TV pundits and Beltway politics, when her mentor is nominated for the U.S. Supreme Court. Invited onto a TV news show as an "expert," she quickly becomes a hot talking head and major player in the ensuing confirmation battle. Tables turn in one fell swoop, when she and her prior relationship with the nominee become the story. A biting, cautionary tale of the art of spin, love, and betrayal, this is a play about how deeply you’ll compromise principle to get a result …or just to stay in the game.
