THE CAPITOL STEPS to Play MPAC

If you've ever wanted to see Barack Obama sing a show tune, Nancy Pelosi sing a rock song, and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie do a classical ballet, The Capitol Steps might just be the show for you!

The Capitol Steps, the Washington D.C.-based comedy troupe that began as a group of Senate Staffers, will present a show based on songs from their current album "Mock the Vote" at Mayo Performing Arts Center, Friday, January 8, 2016 at 8 pm. Tickets are $29-59.

The Capitol Steps have been a Washington, DC institution for over thirty years, providing a unique blend of musical and political comedy to our nation's Capitol and more. Each show consists of tasteful lampooning guaranteed to leave both sides of the political spectrum laughing. The troupe started in 1981, when John McCain was only 63 years old! Since then, they have appeared on "The Today Show," "Nightline," "CBS Evening News" and for many years in specials for National Public Radio.

Their show is constantly changing, strenuously bi-partisan, and includes songs about everything in the news, such as "How Do You Solve a Problem Like Crimea," "Ain't No Pipeline, Now It's Gone," and "The iMpossible iWatch."

With the presidential primaries just around the corner, we need the nuttiness of The Capitol Steps to stop the insanity more than ever!
