The Election
Don Zolidis
It’s Election Day, and Adam knows his over-zealous girlfriend will never forgive him if he fails to vote.
But when his sex starved sister, an eco-terrorist, and a mayoral candidate willing to do anything for a vote all show up, Adam finds that making that quick trip to the polls might be harder than he thought.
Election Day is a hilarious dark comedy about the price of political (and personal) campaigns.
"An outrageous comedy...at double-espresso speed."
— The New York Times
"Ridiculously entertaining...cute and cutting."
— Variety
"Laugh-out-loud."
— Back Stage
"Delightfully farcical...Tobiessen takes a simple premise and spins it out into a hilarious sequence of events. His dialogue is lean and playful, and includes some terrific lines."
