This is a funny and slightly absurd play that takes a sharp look at what really happens behind the scenes in an election.
The story shows how two big political parties are fighting it out, with the current ruling party having a good shot at winning the important seat. But then, one not-so-simple letter turns everything upside down and puts their victory at risk.
It’s all about the ridiculousness of fancy speeches that cover up the little tricks each side is up to. It’s like a circus of plots and schemes that feels all too real.
This play is a funny and biting look at the corrupt nature of elections in today’s world.
