1812 Productions opens their 2016/17 season with the hilarious THIS IS THE WEEK THAT IS: THE ELECTION SPECIAL. This show provides a respite from the chaos of this current election season, and delivers the gift of laughter to the audience no matter which side of the political aisle you are on. Personally, I felt this show provided a perfect escape from the madness of this year's political season, and it was a pure two hours of laughter. Everything about this show was brilliant from the writing to the use of digital media to the impersonations and skits. This is one show that you will be sorry if you miss this season, especially if you have the election time blues.

New England's longest-running comedy theater presents two politically-charged comedy shows to ring in the election season: GoreFest XIV: The Campain (an original, scripted splatter musical) and Election! (an improvised political debate on a topic provided by the audience). Each show combines the best and worst parts of politics for one night of unforgettable laughter and the terrifying reality that it's not far from the truth.
