Talk about front row seats! Laurie Metcalf and John Lithgow have been announced to play Bill and Hillary Clinton in a new play, Hillary and Clinton, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Lucas Hnath, who made his Broadway debut in 2017 with A Doll’s House, Part 2, is writing the show, which will open on Broadway in April of next year. Joe Mantello will direct.
According to THR, the play is “a four-hander set in New Hampshire during the 2008 Democratic primaries, as Hillary Rodham Clinton, her chief strategist Mark J. Penn, and her husband Bill Clinton butt heads over whether bringing in the former president will be a liability or an asset in HRC’s troubled campaign to secure the nomination for a White House run. Her opponent, Barack Obama, is the play’s unnamed fourth character, referred to only as ‘The Other Guy.’”
