THE OUTSIDER
by Paul Slade Smith

a non-partisan laugh-fest
May 18 – August 31

Number-cruncher Ned Newly is a complete unknown with a paralyzing fear of public speaking and no political instincts—he certainly doesn’t want to be Governor. But when his boss gets booted after a scandal, Ned is catapulted into the public eye. With the threat of a special election just days away, his oddball team of consultants scrambles to give him a political makeover. "The Outsider" is a hilarious, non-partisan send-up of modern American politics and an inspirational tribute to democracy.
