Description
From across the room I saw the President, torchlight playing across his visage.
And the violins began, and the low rumble of the timpani.
I screamed. I ran.
An old farmhouse upstate. Snow is falling. Mountains are falling. Something is breaking apart.
You are formally invited to dinner with the 45th President of the United States.
Anne Washburn (The Twilight Zone, Mr Burns) returns with a sinister and sensational new play, directed by Almeida Artistic Director Rupert Goold.
