Molly Ivins, the brassy Texan reporter whose liberal journalism skyrocketed her to the national stage. From writing Elvis Presley's New York Times obituary to becoming the most widely-read self-proclaimed "pain in the a_s_s to whatever powers come to be," Ivins, often described as a modern-day Mark Twain, made rabid fans and enemies alike with her sharp-tongued humor and unabashed political criticism. This acclaimed show captures the six foot tall, redheaded reporter's indomitable character by weaving personal anecdotes with her colorful take on national politics. Celebrate the legendary wit and progressive spirit of renowned newspaper columnist Molly Ivins in this dynamic play. Witness the passionate defense of her beloved Texas and skewering of political hypocrisy through Ivins' famous turns of phrase and relentless commitment to speaking truth to power. Experience the charm, humor, and unwavering integrity of this trailblazing journalist who captured the hearts of readers nationwide.

"Red Hot Patriot is an inspiring piece of theater."
