Ivankaplay Charles Gershman

About This Show

She’s hot, rich, and f*cking powerful. She knows bad things are happening. But she’s making millions selling her line of shoes, Jared’s voice is as soothing as ASMR, and her kids keep her busy. Does she have the balls to shape the future? A dazzling meditation on heroism starring an alternate version of America’s first daughter, from multi-award-winning NYC company Snowy Owl.
