When the president unwittingly spins a PR nightmare into a global crisis\, the seven brilliant and beleaguered women he relies upon most risk life\, liberty\, and the pursuit of sanity to keep the commander-in-chief out of trouble. A broad\, zany\, old-school comedy that earned three 2022 Tony nominations. \nCASTING THE FOLLOWING ROLES:\nNote: roles are open to all ethnicities. \nHARRIET: (F\, 40+) His Chief of Staff. Steel-Nerved. Composed. Seemingly Loyal to a fault. Always in control. Until she’s not \nJEAN: (F\, 30-60) His Press Secretary. Hanging on by a thread. Master spinner. Constantly amazed at how much can go wrong. Easily baited or pulled off target. In other words\, also a mom. \nSTEPHANIE: (F\, 25-60) His Secretary. Struggling to stand amongst the giants. Easily intimidated\, but resilient. Book-smart\, not people-smart. Completely uninhibited and primal in the right circumstances. \nDUSTY: (F\, 20-40) His dalliance. Farm Girl. Also\, in STEM. Also\, a Cheerleader. A little ditzy\, but that plays into her immense charm & confidence. Open-minded on plenty of fronts\, and ready to play ball (and with balls) \nBERNADETTE: (F\, 35-55) His Lesbian\, incarcerated sister. Straight out of Prison. Black Sheep. Narcotic Saleswoman (and great at it). Got a guy for everything. Vengeful against the system she was born into. \nCHRIS: (F\, 25-45): A journalist and nursing mother of twins. Hard-Earned Senior Reporter. Crafty. Observant and quick to act. Under-utilized and written off as a new mom \nMARGARET: (F\, 40-60) His Wife. Calculated. Fighting against the intimidation her accomplishments bring. Elegance masking a level of simmering rage at all times. \nBEGINNING REHEARSAL SCHEDULE:\n\n\nPOTUS Beg.
