Conclave
The whole crew is back together again in our first episode in the new timeline, and processing the recent US election by diving into a film about a very different election Conclave, a political mystery thriller about the administration of the election of a new pope, and the machinations of power amongst the high level cardinals seeking to win the title. Our real world election was very much not good pop, but will the one in Conclave be?

Chinese Republicans, a new play from Alex Lin
Coming to the Roundabout Theatre Company this winter, Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Alex Lin, directed by Chay Yew, following three high-powered businesswomen who meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.
