Story
Get ready to listen in on one of the most famous secret meetings in recent history at MCC Theater's 10th anniversary revival of Nixon's Nixon. Russell Lees' riveting play imagines the conversation that took place when President Richard Nixon summoned Secretary of State Henry Kissinger to the White House on August 7, 1974, the night before Nixon resigned. No one knows the content of their conversation, but Lees presents these larger-than-life characters reliving past glories, fighting for their political future and wrestling with their desire to hold on to power.
Nixon's Nixon was a long-running hit for MCC Theater a decade ago, and this revival reunites original stars Gerry Bamman (as Nixon) and Steve Mellor (as Kissinger) and their director, Jim Simpson. Don't miss this unique opportunity to experience the off-Broadway remounting of this acclaimed play.
