All The King’s Men: Classic Political Drama Comes to Life on Stage
Morgan-Wixson Theatre (Santa Monica, CA)
Robert Penn Warren’s Pulitzer Prize-winning classic All The King’s Men comes to vivid life on stage, painting an ever-timely and enthralling portrait of Willie Stark, a populist politician in the 1930s South. Just as hard-hitting today as when it was first published in 1946, the tale of one man’s rise from poverty into a position as Louisiana’s most influential — and ruthless — public figure is a tragic story of absolute power that corrupts absolutely. Adapted into a 1949 Best Picture winner, this truly American drama remains eerily relevant as it delves into the moral dilemmas of our political leaders.
