The Outsider is a sharp, fast-paced political comedy about what happens when the least qualified person imaginable suddenly becomes governor. Ned Newley may be honest, sincere, and well-meaning—but he also has terrible poll numbers, crippling stage fright, and absolutely no political instincts.
As his staff scrambles to manage the chaos and the media descends in a frenzy, Ned’s accidental authenticity begins to resonate with voters in unexpected ways. Packed with clever dialogue, outrageous situations, and biting humor, The Outsider is a timely and hilarious look at modern politics and the power of simply telling the truth.
