The Front Page: SCOOPED by Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur, adapted by Dinah Watts
Corrupt politicians. A condemned man. Tough-guy newsmen scrambling for the story of the century. But what if those newsmen were newswomen? In this playful, provocative adaptation of a 100-year-old classic, women step into men’s shoes — literally. With zingers flying and roles flipped, The Front Page: SCOOPED delivers suspense, romance, danger, and a fresh look at a generally male dominated industry.
Ink-stained fingers and political scandal await.
