The Best Man

Presented by Madison Theatre Guild

By Gore Vidal
Directed by David Pausch

At the Presidential primaries in the summer of 1960 in Philadelphia, an ethical man running for the Presidential nomination runs against an “unscrupulous” man. Populist southern senator Joseph Cantwell is a “bigot and a charlatan”, while William Russell, who prides himself on his honesty, is the liberal candidate, “likable, forceful and humorous.” Both candidates try to get the endorsement of the popular outgoing president, who enjoys not telling them which one he’ll endorse.

Timely & thought-provoking political thriller about ambition, scandal, ruthlessness, & corruption.
