Relative Theatrics presents -in-chief by Ally Duvak
The editor-in-chief of a college newspaper manages a divisive Pennsylvania swing county newsroom as the impending 2016 presidential election looms over the United States. While all eyes are on the national stage, the editor-in-chief finds herself grappling with cataclysmic events much closer to home.
Described by playwright Gabriel Jason Dean as a display of Duvak's "beyond-her-years skill for building complex characters, a masterful use of dramatic irony, and an enviable ear for rhythmic, musical dialogue that crackles with wit, wisdom and complexity."
-in-chief is at once a clever comedy and a striking political commentary, keeping both in a fine balance.
Content Warning: This play includes heavy discussion of sexual assault. There are also allusions to homophobia, misogyny, and racism. There are no violent acts depicted onstage but they are referred to in conversation.
Tickets are sold on a Pick your Price model. Learn more
All shows start at 7:30pm with doors for seating opening at 7pm.
This RT production will at the UW Buchanan Center for the Performing Arts in the Studio Theatre.
Online Ticket sales end at 4pm on the day of the event. Visit our box office at the Buchanan Center 30 minutes before seating opens if purchasing after 4pm or call 307-314-2334
