White House Plumbers is about G. Gordon Liddy and E. Howard Hunt, who were given that nickname because of their job “plugging press leaks by any means necessary,” until they “accidentally overturn the Presidency they were trying to protect.” The cast is pretty impressive — like, when Kathleen Turner and Judy Greer are listed near the bottom of the Wikipedia entry, you know you got a good list of recognizable folks. As you might imagine, F. Murray Abraham did not attend the premiere. Although the show had its own controversy, per Wikipedia, when “production was suspended after an audio recording reportedly captured [producer David] Mandel berating and threatening the head of props, and the props department walked off the set.” That dude, not featured, DID show up.
