Abstract: Spin Cycle is a two-act stage play detailing the adventures of a group of people in the political consulting trade. Action takes place in a simple hotel room somewhere in the American Midwest during an extended primary campaign. Principal characters include: Donovan, a major player in the campaign; Elton Reel and John Rodman, two operatives, the former much younger, the latter an old hand; and a mysterious room service waiter named Walid.   What starts out as a simple misstep grows into a series of unforeseen problems involving some sexual misconduct by the candidate, all hysterically acted out against the constant hum of cable TV news that comments on and at times participates in the action.  Mayhem ensues.
