This political comedy is set just days before a major presidential election and focuses on the lives of five characters. The production details the mishaps and adventures of a day in the life of the fictitious president Charles Smith as he tries to navigate his way through the White House. The plot focuses in on the different views about civil marriages, gambling, lesbians, American Indians, presidential libraries, pardons and campaign contributions all described with a comical twist. November has a spectacular cast and creative team that bring this production to life. The ensemble is extremely talented and is lead by a theatrical powerhouse. A show usually can’t miss when Tony award winner Lane takes the stage. He gained critical acclaim, audience approval and a Tony award for Best Actor as Max Bialystock in the popular 2001 production of The Producers. A few years later he found success again as Oscar Madison in The Odd Couple where he starred opposite his Producers sidekick Matthew Brodderick. He was most recently seen on Broadway in 2006 in the title role of Butley. Lane is also known for his many film roles including The Birdcage and he has voiced the popular characters The Lion King and Stuart Little.

The show also stars Laurie Metcalf who is probably best known for her three time Emmy winning portrayal of Jackie on the hit sitcom Roseanne and has most recently appeared in Desperate Housewives. The play was written by Pulitzer Prize winning playwright David Mamet. He is known for his thought provoking works that contain his unique dialogue that is often written for impact and effect. His writing takes on a world of its own and his style is so different that it is sometimes referred to as ‘Mametspeak”. He was awarded the Pulitzer in 1984 for Glengarry Glen Ross and some of his other plays include Speed-the-Plow and Oleanna. He has also penned several screenplays including The Verdict and The Untouchables.
