Photo Flash: Danny Glover Visits THE GREAT SOCIETY
Actor Danny Glover paid a visit to Arena Stage yesterday for a performance of The Great Society, check out the photos with the cast below!
Robert Schenkkan's Tony Award-winning play All the Way set the stage for President Lyndon Baines Johnson's sudden ascent to the White House. In its D.C. premiere, The Great Society brings the second half of Schenkkan's epic story to its harrowing conclusion. As America is divided by civil rights protests and the anguish of the Vietnam War, LBJ struggles to maintain his relationship with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., keep his political opponents in check and complete a raft of impossibly ambitious social policy projects. Jack Willis reprises his "stunning performance" (Broadway World) in this political thrill ride that explores the America of our past to better understand the America of today.
