Complete Performance Calendar

From the acclaimed Neo-Futurists, creators of Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind, comes an irreverent, hilarious and updated jaunt through the lives of the 43 Commanders-in-Chief. From the first George to the latest, we are giving each President two minutes in the spotlight—and you, our friends in the audience, get to choose #44 each night. No need to thank us. We take our history seriously, too!

Featuring an ensemble cast of Cassie Beck, Aaron Munoz, Nick Cordileone, and Abigail Bailey Maupin and Gregory Maupin (founders of Le Petomane Theatre Ensemble).

15 minutes prior to each performance, the actors will host presidential trivia.
