Shooting over multiple days at the Orpheum Theatre in downtown Los Angeles in October, The West Wing stars Rob Lowe, Dulé Hill, Allison Janney, Janel Moloney, Richard Schiff, Bradley Whitford, and Martin Sheen will reprise their roles from the episode. In addition to the original cast, A West Wing Special to Benefit When We All Vote will also feature guest appearances and a special message from Michelle Obama alongside others.

Returning to his playwright roots, Sorkin will adapt the episode, writing new exclusive material for the staged version and special, and Tom Schlamme will direct the production. “Tommy and I are incredibly excited to be getting The West Wing cast back together for this staged reading and to support When We All Vote in their efforts to get all of us involved in this election,” Sorkin said of the event.
“With A West Wing Special to Benefit When We All Vote, we are excited to revisit this legendary series and offer our passionate fans something that is substantial, meaningful and unforgettable, while also promoting an important message for our time,” said HBO Max’s head of of original content, Sarah Aubrey. “Combined with WarnerMedia’s donation to When We All Vote, this special not only entertains, but also help ensure the organization can carry forth its mission to increase voter participation in every election.”
Following COVID Safe Way Forward Protocols, A West Wing Special to Benefit When We All Vote is produced by Casey Patterson Entertainment in association with Warner Horizon Unscripted Television.
