Seven White House women scramble to contain a presidential scandal in a political farce.
When the President causes a public relations disaster that threatens to escalate into a global crisis, seven women who manage the White House must work together to contain the fallout. As the situation spirals, they navigate political pressure, competing priorities, and the consequences of the President’s reckless behavior. The comedy uses farce, slapstick, rapid-fire jokes, and slamming doors to examine power and the women tasked with keeping the administration functioning.
