I don’t think that either of us knew what we were expecting when we arrived at the theater. To be honest, it felt a bit like being in on the start of some little revolution. When we arrived at the play location, we walked through what looked like a mock art exhibit, around a small turn and through what felt like a small opening hidden by black curtain. The theatre was small and very modest but WOW what happened when the lights went down.

From the very first monologue we were laughing, hugging and reminiscing about all of the emotions, characters and drama surrounding the President Obama’s run to the White House. There were a couple times where I was a liitle embarrased how spot on one of the actors would be about just how I myself felt at certain times during the election process. My favorite character was the youngest cast member who reminded all of us that everyone is impacted by politics in our country and everyone should be heard.

I hope each of you has an opportunity to see this smart, funny and thought provoking play. It was the best $18 we spent during our stay in D.C.
