What's on in London: Receptionist of the United States
Leigh Douglas is ROTUS.
Leigh Douglas brings her satirical show ROTUS: Receptionist of The United States to the London stage.
The show follows Chastity Quirke – White House receptionist (Receptionist Of The United States), ex-sorority chapter president, and staunch Republican – as she navigates a sudden political and personal reckoning. Fiercely loyal to the President and determined to rise through the ranks, Chastity’s blind faith in the system begins to falter as she’s forced to confront the consequences of her unwavering allegiance.
ROTUS interrogates the pressures, contradictions and moral consequences faced by young women operating within hardline conservative politics, particularly the role white women have played in upholding patriarchal power structures.
While the story is fictional, it draws heavily on the lived experiences of real women, weaving together stand-up, theatre, and cabaret to paint a portrait of a woman caught between loyalty, ambition, and conscience.
ROTUS will run at the Park Theatre in London from 20 January until 7 February
