Boss

by Edward Sheldon

Set amidst the backdrop of the labor movement in early 20th century America, "The Boss" is a gripping and thought-provoking play that explores the clash between personal ambition and social responsibility. Michael Regan, an ambitious businessman, is torn between his desire for success and his growing compassion for the plight of his workers. Emily Griswold, a strong-willed woman, fights to save her family's struggling business while navigating the complexities of love and betrayal. As the lines between right and wrong blur, both Regan and Griswold must confront their own moral choices and the consequences of their actions.
