“One of the top theatrical events of the season that should be required viewing for the current presidential candidates.” - Chicago Sun-Times 
 
Just in time for the elections, we bring back our critically acclaimed, award-winning production of Nixon’s Nixon.  This box office record-breaking production returns to our most intimate theatre for a limited engagement.  Artistic Director Michael Halberstam will once again direct William Brown and Larry Yando as they reprise their tour-de-force performances as Kissinger and Nixon in this thrilling, hilarious and brilliantly imagined story of what might have happened in the Lincoln sitting room the night before Nixon resigned.

“Every performance is exquisitely shaped.” - Chicago Sun-Times

“An intensely emotional revival.” - Chicago Tribune

This American classic is staged by Chicago’s own David Cromer whose previous work for Writers’ Theatre includes The Price and Booth and whose highly acclaimed production of The Adding Machine is enjoying a successful run in New York.  When a charismatic young drifter arrives in a small Kansas town on the eve of a Labor Day picnic, the simmering repressions of its residents come rapidly to a boil.  Frequently hilarious and profoundly moving, Inge’s masterpiece chronicles the hopes and despairs that lie between the realization of adulthood and the eternal optimism of youth.

Running Time: 2 hours
