Breakdown

ALL THE WAY, the 2014 Tony Award winner for Best Play written by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Robert Schenkkan, is based on Lyndon Baines Johnson's prolific first year as President, and featuring many of the 20th Century's most famous leaders including Martin Luther King, Jr., J. Edgar Hoover, Governor George Wallace, Senator Hubert Humphrey, Secretary of Defense Robert J. McNamara and President Johnson himself. ZACH Theatre's production, directed by Dave Steakley, will be the premiere performance of this play in President Johnson's home state of Texas.


LYNDON BAINES JOHNSON
White male, mid-late 50s. US President and master politician. Brave and brutal, compassionate and cruel, intelligent and insensitive, with an uncanny instinct for the jugular of his allies and adversaries. Possessing a marvelous, often crude sense of humor. Privately a font of extraordinary insecurity and vulnerability.

MARTIN LUTHER KING JR.
African-American male, 30s. Civil rights leader trying hard to keep the movement together through impossible tradeoffs. Charismatic, insightful and conciliatory. Not a saint, but a man of high ideals.
