Details

Depicts a fictional encounter between Bobby Kennedy and three reporters who have gathered in the Ambassador's Hotel, Los Angeles to interview the man tipped to become Democratic candidate for the 1968 presidential race. They are: Tom Quinn, a disillusioned Irish-American, James Gordon, a black activist and Nancy Buckman, an anti-war liberal. Over the course of a memorable evening the three will discover a man transformed by grief who might just have saved his country from Richard Nixon and many more years of the Vietnam War. But this is not just a biographical, historical play about the life of Bobby Kennedy: as the personal drama surrounding the three reporters unfolds and becomes entwined with Bobby's enigmatic story, a powerful and timely reflection of current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan emerges.
