The stars of Gore Vidal's The Best Man James Earl Jones, John Larroquette, Eric McCormack, Michael McKean and Jefferson Mays will be joining the play's director Michael Wilson at 92nd Street Y on Monday April 30 at 8pm for a talk event about this fascinating, prescient work, which Vidal wrote in an era when the impact of television and public discussion of politicians' sex lives had yet to be felt. Caryn James, the film and culture critic and author, moderates the discussion.
Remember when political conventions were fun? When the delegates gathered into town, not to perfunctorily declare a pre-determined winner, but to debate through multiple votes, late night deals and maybe a few protest rallies to come up with a nominee?
On April 30, critic Caryn James will lead a conversation regarding why Gore Vidal's THE BEST MAN is more relevant than ever in this election year at 92Y. Set to appear are several of the show's stars: James Earl Jones, John Larroquette, Michael McKean, Jefferson Mays and director Michael Wilson.
