What does it take to win?
How much of ourselves do we have to compromise for power?
And who really gets to call the shots?
In Hillary and Clinton, acclaimed playwright Lucas Hnath reimagines a moment in history with sharp wit and deep insight, exploring the complexities of power, marriage, and ambition. Set in a world eerily similar to our own, this gripping and thought-provoking play peels back the public image to reveal the personal struggles of a woman fighting to break the highest glass ceiling. - Timely, compelling, and unexpectedly funny, Hillary and Clinton invites you to see the people behind the politics in a way you’ve never seen before.
