Hardball by Victoria Stewart

In this timely and provocative play, Victoria Stewart turns her razor sharp pen toward the 21st century phenomenon known as "opinion journalism." Hardball tracks the transformation of a young woman from budding journalist to celebrity pundit and the sacrifices she makes along the way. Her journey provides a compelling exploration of modern day news and commentary and the maneuverings of those who provide it.
