My new play WHEN MONICA MET HILLARY premieres at Miami New Drama this Feb., directed by Margot Bordelon. Any producers or ADs interested in discussing a partnership in bringing it to another city, could be as a rolling premiere. The play is topical, feminist, trenchant and funny. Four characters.
WHEN MONICA MET HILLARY
Girl meets boss. Boss seduces girl. Girl loses everything.
A First Lady overcomes, breaks the glass ceiling…only to find another.
Monica and Hillary have never met…Until now.

It’s 1995. Monica Lewinsky is 22 and an Intern at the White House. She has a crush on the President of the United States.

It’s 1996. Huma Abedin is 19 and an Intern at the White House. She has a plan to break the glass ceiling with the future First Lady of the United States.

You think you know the story. After all, you did hear it from the media, the news, the tabloids…but you might come to realize you don’t know it at all.

Because This story is actually a tale about mothers and daughters, ambitious politicians playing the role of who are devoted wives, and, yes, the men…but they don’t have a say in how this story ends.

Monica and Hillary have never met, have never spoken to each other; but what if, three decades after the fact, they did meet?

A WORLD PREMIERE play written by Winter Miller (The Public Theater’s In Darfur) and directed by Margot Bordelon.
