Born Yesterday

by Garson Kanin

directed by Mike Clements and Alicia Ouellette

This classic comedy was the basis for two film versions (most famously starring William Holden and Judy Holiday). Corrupt tycoon Harry Brock hires reporter Paul Verrall to give Brock's girlfriend, showgirl Bille Dawn, lessons in the ways of Washington DC.

Billie learns those lessons (and more) better than anyone bargained for. The perfect break from political news at the height of the campaign season.
