The Outsider
A Comedy by Paul Slade Smith
In the midst of a political scandal, Lieutenant Governor Ned Newley, the ultimate policy wonk, is unexpectedly thrust into the position of Governor. A complete unknown, with no political instincts and a paralyzing fear of public speaking, Ned seems destined to fail. But his political consultants see things a little differently: Ned might be the worst candidate to ever run for office. Unless the public is looking for… the worst candidate to ever run for office!
THE OUTSIDER is a razor-sharp, hilarious satire of modern American politics and an inspirational tribute to democracy. If you’re overwhelmed by today’s headlines, this thoroughly non-partisan laugh-fest is just what you need.
