I love this play. The dialogue is smart and fast, and the characters are complex. Everything about the story - from the frustration that sparks May's decision, to the aftermath of her actions - feels entirely plausible. As someone who is tired of watching extremely qualified women lose elections to less qualified men, this was a nice piece of revenge fantasy - and a good reminder that getting a woman in the White House is really just the beginning of the fight.
