James Wilson takes a look at State of the Union:
In State of the Union, Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse's 1946 Pulitzer Prize-winning play currently being revived by Metropolitan Playhouse, a presidential hopeful agrees to go on the pre-campaign trail accompanied by his wife in order to disavow rumors of an extramarital affair. Traveling with one's wife instead of a mistress? As one of the characters declares, "Politics makes strange bedfellows." . . . |
