Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Tracy Letts weaves a heartwarming and humorous tale of unlikely friendships in one of Chicago's most diverse neighborhoods. Arthur Przybyszewski's Superior Donuts has been a community hub for decades, and both the neglected storefront and its rundown owner are evidence to that. But when Franco, a young, fast-talking dreamer, bounds into the shop, it's clear that things are going to change --and maybe for the better.

The Geffen Playhouse presents the American premiere of Yes, Prime Minister, the uproarious political satire fresh from an acclaimed West End run.

With the entire nation on the brink of financial ruin, will the PM and his motley team of advisors resort to a morally dubious deal with the Foreign Minister of Kumranistan in order to avert potential calamity? Written by Antony Jay and Jonathan Lynn, creators of the 1980s BBC sitcom upon which the play is based, Yes, Prime Minister features a talented cast of stage and screen stars including Michael McKean (This Is Spinal Tap), Tony Award winner Jefferson Mays (Broadway's The Best Man) and Brian George (Seinfeld, The Big Bang Theory).

Excellent production from opening to ending scene. The cast is superb and the writing poignant. The show is laugh out loud funny with a deep, heartfelt twist of friendship.

Enjoyed the play, love the venue, but was not thrilled with Gary Cole's catatonic portrayal of Arthur. I kept wishing I was seeing Michael McKean. Edi Gathegi was great as Franco.

Slow at times, but overall a funny and touching play. The Geffen is intimate and a beautiful venue for this.
