The Outsider
by Paul Slade Smith
Directed by Kimberly Demmary
The Outsider is a timely and hilarious comedy that skewers politics and celebrates democracy. Accidental governor Ned Newley is terrified of public speaking and his poll numbers are impressively bad. But a political consultant thinks the very qualities that make Ned a terrible politician might just make him what the public is looking for: the ideal outsider to govern the state.
