Die Schattenpräsidentinnen

In the organizer's words:
Drama

Or: Behind every great idiot there are seven women trying to keep him alive
by Selina Fillinger | translated from the English by Nico Rabenald
In German language

An acclaimed Broadway comedy about the women who keep the Oval Office running while babysitting the big jerk who holds the presidency - and the question of why they do it and for how long. The setting is the White House, not excluding nightmarish similarities with living and governing persons! However, the young author Selina Fillinger is less interested in the President, who proves unworthy of his office, than in his hyper-competent enablers: the Chief of Staff, the Press Secretary, his personal secretary, his flirt, his sister, a journalist and the First Lady. By 9am, the President is already disastrously off course after addressing the First Lady at his first appearance with a word that should be unpronounceable and cannot be printed here under any circumstances. The Kingdom of Bahrain reacts snubbed, the subsequent discussion of a nuclear non-aggression pact threatens to turn into a nuclear crisis, madness reigns... The successful US playwright Selina Fillinger has dedicated her play to "every woman who has ever found herself as a supporting role in a male farce" - and provides change with seven brilliant female roles.
