From: Photo Flash: In Rehearsal with Metropolitan Playhouse's MAN OF THE HOUR

Trusted sons of wealthy families who ascend to high office to do their party's bidding? Crooked backroom deals that ignore the will or needs of the people? Well-placed one-percenters who avoid punishment no matter the crime? These are not merely well-trodden news angles ripped from the latest headlines. They're among the central themes of The Man of the Hour, a 1906 play inspired by Tammany Hall, which begins performances on February 20, 2015 at Metropolitan Playhouse. BroadwayWorld has a sneak peek at the cast in rehearsal below!
