"Best of Enemies" (NT Live) at Hammer Theatre Center

Hammer Theatre Center presents a blistering political thriller with its National Theatre Live (NT Live) screening of Best of Enemies, a multi-award-winning drama by James Graham, starring Zachary Quinto (Star Trek) and David Harewood (Homeland) portraying two cultural icons of the 1960s. While two men fight to become the next president of the United States in 1968, all eyes are on the battle between two others: the cunningly conservative William F. Buckley Jr. (Harewood), and the unruly liberal Gore Vidal (Quinto). During a new nightly television format, they debate the moral landscape of a shattered nation. Beliefs are challenged and slurs slung as a new frontier in American politics is opening – and television news is about to be transformed forever.
