[PLOT]
One four-letter word is about to rock 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. When the President unwittingly spins a PR nightmare into a global crisis, the seven brilliant and beleaguered women he relies upon most risk life, liberty, and the pursuit of sanity to keep the commander-in-chief out of trouble.
[ROLES]
Each character plays a vital role in managing a PR disaster that spirals into a full-blown crisis, showcasing a fast-paced farce centered on the women who keep the White House functioning despite the chaos.
HARRIET - His chief of staff. Is really running the show. Keeps it all together, until she doesn't.
JEAN - His press secretary. It's her job to spin shit she doesn't want to know. Tries to ignore her feelings for Bernadette.
STEPHANIE - His secretary. Learning to assert herself and goes through an unintentional spiritual journey.
DUSTY - His dalliance (lover). A farmer's daughter from Iowa. Thinks she has a future with POTUS. Can also rally a crowd.
BERNADETTE - His sister. Fresh out of jail and already back on her bullshit. Is unapologetically gay.
CHRIS - A journalist. Newly divorced mother of three with vomit on her neck and tit juice on her shirt. Trying not to lose her job.
MARGARET - His wife. The First Lady. Wildly accomplished, deeply effective but still just a woman.
