An Evening with Senator Margaret Chase Smith by Linda Britt
(Perfect for professional, amateur and educational production.)
This wonderful show is all about Maine’s long-time Representative and Senator. A powerful, funny, timely take on politics in a polarized era. Senator Margaret Chase Smith, a woman of firsts, from her election to both houses of Congress, to speaking out against Joe McCarthy, to her nomination for President at a national convention, comes back when we need her most.
