What is it like for a woman when her husband becomes the president of the United Statesand she is suddenly thrust into the spotlight? This witty, sly and deeply moving play explores the hopes, fears and loves of Lady Bird Johnson, Pat Nixon and Betty Ford. In three scenes taking place on the grounds of the White House just prior to the end of living there as the wife of a president, each of the women confides alone to the audience. Secrets are spilled about their early years, their husbands rise to power, their romances with the men, their unique paths as wives in the White House, and their feelings about imminent retirement. Each of the three portraits becomes intimate, by degrees, as the women wrestle with what Pat Nixon called the hardest unpaid job in the world.Tea for Three: Lady Bird, Pat and Betty will be staged outdoors in the Lucie Stern Community Centers Patio to a live in-person audience, in accordance with the State of California guidelines.
