Change Agent

The Cuban Missile Crisis. The Civil Rights Movement. The Cold War. Some of the most influential periods in U.S. history, in an eerie resonance with the social and racial movements of today. During the volatile 1960s, one woman influenced American policy — and in turn, world events — through her friendships and proximity to power. Change Agent pulls back the curtain on an artist who fought long and hard to keep the humanity in politics and expand the consciousness of a nation. Tony Award-nominated playwright and director Craig Lucas’ (An American in Paris, The Light in the Piazza) provocative Power Play imagines compelling scenes between the unsung influencers of that time. These insider voices were responsible for impacting major decisions that are still unfolding and radically impacting our country today.
