READING Biscuit Factory is hosting the latest of its stage screenings in May.

The independent cinema in the centre of town will show The Best of Enemies from the National Theatre Live collection.

The play sees David Harewood and Zachary Quinto portray William F Buckley Jr and Gore Vidal, respectively.

Set against the background of a US presidential election in 1968, the play follows an all-out political battle between two men vying for power through their advocacy of the two parties.

The landscape of American politics is changed over the course of a series of nightly debates as television broadcasts begin to inform democracy on a scale never seen before.

It is written by James Graham, the multi-Olivier Award-winning author behind Finding Neverland, Labour of Love, and The Vote, directed by Jeremy Herrin, and filmed live in London’s West End.
