RUN ROBBIE RUN is a wickedly funny political satire about what happens when a party's winning formula expires-and the professionals paid to manage reality decide it's easier to fake it.
With the convention weeks away, former President Dewey Fenwick should be torching his opponent. Instead, his campaign is working a different kind of miracle: keeping Dewey upright, camera-ready, and just coherent enough for friendly coverage to insist he's "at the top of his game."
Behind the scenes, veteran fixer Ned Witherspoon and a desperately overqualified intern scramble to keep the nominee-and the narrative-from collapsing.
When Dewey's situation becomes untenable, the party pivots to a new solution: L. Robertson "Robbie" Crowe III, billionaire heir, failed executive, and walking blank screen. To the strategists, Robbie is ideal-famous enough to sell, vague enough to shape, and unburdened by inconvenient convictions.
Robbie is handed a running mate who instantly becomes his infatuation: Evita Manolo, the glamorous "Socialist Sensation." Together they are to sell a platform that's equal parts utopian branding and velvet-glove control: a "voluntary" rewards program that scores citizens for good behavior, penalizes them for bad, and quietly determines who gets a job, a mortgage, and friends.
Fast, bawdy, and uncomfortably familiar, Run Robbie Run skewers campaign politics, media groupthink, and the fine art of pretending everything's fine-right up until it isn't.
For readers of: Veep-style political workplace comedy; sharp, inside-baseball satire; and Orwell-tinged plausibility where the scariest part of a "voluntary" system is what it quietly makes mandatory.
