Gore Vidal's THE BEST MAN comes to Broadway in an all-star theatrical event with two time Tony Award® winner James Earl Jones, Tony® and Emmy Award winner John Larroquette, Emmy and Golden Globe winner Candice Bergen, Emmy Award winner Eric McCormack, Tony Award® winner Jefferson Mays, Drama Desk Award winner and Academy Award nominee Michael McKean and five time Tony Award® winner Angela Lansbury.

A play about power, ambition, political secrets, ruthlessness and the race for the presidency, Gore Vidal’s THE BEST MAN is set at the national convention where two candidates are vying for their party¹s nomination during the primary season. It's an inside look at the dirt-digging, double-dealing, triple-crossing chicanery of presidential electioneering...and what could be more fun in a Presidential campaign season than these theatrical fireworks.

The award winning creative team behind the scenes includes director Michael Wilson (Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Award for Horton Foote’s Orphans), Tony Award® winner designers Derek McLane (set) and Ken Posner (lighting) and this year’s Theatre Hall of Fame inductee, the legendary Ann Roth (costume design).

This marks the first major revival of Gore Vidal’s THE BEST MAN since it received a Tony Award® nomination and won the Drama Desk Award and Outer Critics Circle in 2000.
