Master storyteller, constitutional scholar, and award-winning playwright, Mark Whitney, places the future of humanity in your hands. At the end of this peaceful assembly -- couched as a Vermont Town Meeting -- your Australian Ballot determines whether the 59 word law that provides for permanent global war should be repealed.
It's the world premiere of "Rightful Masters" -- the true story of two Illinois lawyers, two senators, two presidents, two civil wars, 313 million citizens and one republic.
The Navy shoots Bin Laden and five days later John Kerry tells Bob Schieffer: “We need to shut up and move on about the reality of what happened in that building.”

Dubbed “the foremost amateur attorney in the history of the United States”
by NYTheatre.com, Whitney is the only spoken word artist – besides Drew Carey – to be profiled on Robert McKee’s “Storylogue.” McKee also features Whitney in his “success story” promotional materials, along with Russell Brand. See,
rightfulmasters.com/2012/03/robert-mckee-the-story-behind-fool-for-a-
client/
A regular favorite on the North American independent theatre circuit, Whitney has won festivals in D.C., Des Moines, Minneapolis, San Francisco and New York. He studied with the San Francisco Comedy College and New York’s American Comedy Institute. Lawyers, in particular, give Whitney’s performances high marks!
“FIVE STARS! Not what I expected and that is what made it so interesting in addition to being funny. The piece provided great insight with a lovable quirkiness. The performer was brilliant and has a great niche. I am an attorney and loved his spearing of my profession. Don’t miss it!” ~Scott R., Patron
“FIVE STARS! Excellent! A treatise on our legal system. Extremely hilarious with too much truth.” ~Richard Heise, Patron Review
“Mark Whitney truly is a one man show.” ~Robert McKee, author of STORY and the world’s most widely known and respected screenwriting lecturer.
D.C. Theatre Critics from Peter Marks to Guy McMillan and Janice Cain have likened Whitney to Mike Daisey, Michael Moore and other great storytellers.
The review archive for Whitney’s award-winning, one man, political dramedy FOOL FOR A CLIENT is here: foolforaclient.tv/ and here rightfulmasters.com/review-archive-for-marks-previous-show-fool-for-a

The final performance of FOOL was recorded in D.C. in 2010 and streams here for free;
