Reform: Play Reading

  • Free
  • Theatre

In 1992, a cranky Texas billionaire nearly broke America's two-party system. Based on the absurdly true story, Reform tracks the rise and unravelling of Ross Perot's Reform Party.

Part political satire, part cautionary tale – and, watching it now, not quite as historical as you'd hope.
