I Really Don’t Care

Melania airs some fake laundry.

Starring Kate Yaxley, I Really Don’t Care allows us to spend an evening with the Melania you never knew – unleashed, for the first time, from the bonds of White House protocol (if such a thing still exists in the era of Trump).

Aside from the occasional inflammatory jacket or a word or two on cyber-bullying, she remains an enigma. Is she an almost-innocent bystander, suddenly trapped within the maelstrom of US politics or, alternatively, a self-serving tactician with looks that open doors?

Outrageous, hilarious yet, ultimately, strangely moving, I Really Don’t Care lets you wear ‘that jacket’ for an hour.
