Stage & Screen: GORE VIDAL'S THE BEST MAN

Join playwright Christopher Shinn and director Michael Wilson (who also directed the Tony Award-winning 2012 Broadway revival of Gore Vidal's The Best Man) for a post-screening discussion about how Vidal's work and the current political climate shaped the creation of their new play, Now or Later. In Gore Vidal's The Best Man (based on Vidal's play of the same name), Henry Fonda and Cliff Robertson square off as political adversaries during a presidential primary in this sardonic, insightful drama that brings out the best, and worst, in American politics.
