Nathan Cann never disappoints. He's crafted a really gripping (and bitingly funny) play about a modern-day political dynasty. The Last Buckley is a gripping family drama that unfolds beautifully until the last of a series of revelations leaves the audience spent! The central Character, Candice Buckley, is a tour-de-force role that smacks of August Osage County, The Royal Family, Other Desert Cities, and so many where powerful women drive the narrative.

A powerful look at a political family and the driving force behind it as it may be undone. Well done.

A briskly-paced, intelligently written piece that centers around a dynamic and engaging family. It's beautifully structured, beginning with a sense of tension and comedy that play off one another well and serve as a potent preamble to unsettling and surprising, yet entirely plausible revelations. Cann explores a distinctly American brand of political ambition and desire by illuminating the individual story of this very well-rendered family. I'd love to see this in production!
