February 20 – 28, 2026

Ned Newley doesn’t want to be governor. He’s terrified of public speaking, his poll numbers are impressively bad, and he seems destined to fail.
But a forward-thinking political consultant sees things differently: Ned might be the worst candidate ever to run for office…which might just make him
the perfect politician. A timely and hilarious comedy that skewers politics and celebrates democracy.
