Daisy

ACT
700 Union St. Seattle

While a presidential election is looming, turmoil over civil rights is spilling onto the streets, a fearful ideology is growing from the conservative right and the threat of nuclear war is palpable. Sounds like 2016, right? But no, it's 1964, and a political spot called "Daisy" is about to rock the country. A world premiere, Daisy explores the moment in history where the most infamous political commercial ever made was created by a group of ad-men working for Lyndon B. Johnson and forever changed how we elect our leaders. This stunning play reminds us that if we fail to learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it. See Daisy at Falls Theatre at ACT in Seattle.
